For your citizenship certificate application, please ensure you bring the following documents:

1. Three passport-sized photos of the child with a blue background.
2. Original documents and one photocopy of the following:
   • Child’s birth certificate
   • Mother’s MYKAD
   • Approval letter from KDN (There is a photocopying shop on the ground floor of JPN for your convenience).
3. The child must be present during the application.
4. Payment of RM100 via credit or debit card.

When applying, JPN staff will ask whether you wish to apply at the nearest JPN to your residence. If you choose to apply at JPN Putrajaya, the processing time is approximately 14 days-1 month. However, if you apply at a JPN in another state, the process may take up to 6-7 months to receive the certificate.
