Hi! There!

I am doing a research on "registration of marriage" (ROM) in Thean Hou temple, which is very common (I think)

If you have your experience or experience from your friends/ relatives, can you please share?

So far, from the other forum that I have been - the procedures are:

I understand it is abit hassle for us (the couple), but I wonder if would be less hassle for the witnesses of the marriage. We don't want them to wake up early and line up with us from 8 am at the JPN on the day of registration.

Therefore, my question is: for thean hau temple registration, after we have chosen the date, are we given a time slot? (meaning, we don't have to start queuing like from 8am instead come just before the time slot given?) thanks alot

Your sharing is very much appreciated. (Want to check out here before we actually go there. Thanks)

Submit application is different from the date of registration..

Meaning submit application have to been at least 30 days in advance from your registration date.. take eg of your registration date is on 10/10/2010.. means on 10/9/2010 u have to go Thean Hau temple and JPN to submit all necessary documents.. the procedure is the same as what you have stated above (Thean Hau -> JPN -> Thean Hau).. and witness no need to be with you on application submission day.. they just need to be present on your Registration day

and yes the time of registration is set by them

do PM me if u need more info

you can choose the time slot if you are early but they cannot book a date more than 2 months in advance... system limitation...

also, if you are allocated that time slot, you just some during that time... don't have to come earlier to line up anymore... although you have a time slot, if the couple/couples before you delays, you will get delayed as well...

what i did was, i chose the first time slot of the day, so no problem with delays at all, start on time, finish then go for brunch

word of advice... don't do your marriage cert translation at the COA in the temple! it's a whopping RM200! you can do it outside for less than 1/2 the price, i kena conned, so i don't want others to get the same treatment!

thank you for the information people

btw, is it necessary to do the marriage cert translation?

correction Thean Hou Temple

thanks.,....corrected

Now the process doing it at temples even more hassles than doing it at JPN.

So i rather doing it at Putrajaya

It depend on u i think.. if u really wan to do it better do as suggested by kenji.. i heard the same story frm my fren too..

thank you very much....i heard fr my fren the cert is in malay, so, should not be much problem...

now still getting the timeline and confirm the witnesses

When is ur ROM? 10 Oct?

no la...mid next year

I just ROM on June, I think that is not complicate than what we expect.
1st Stage : Take registration form from JPN (FOC) , after fill in & photostat the neccessary documents such as couple Birth Cert, IC, witness IC and 1 piece passport size photo of couple, submit to JPN proccess, fee RM30 (if not mistake).
2nd Stage : Sumpah at any authories place ( I sumpah floor below JPN, Kepong, my colleague sumpah at Thean Hou Temple RM34)
3rd Stage : Send all document to Thean Hou Temple and select date, RM80. ( Advance 14 days booking, my colleague 5 days only, not too many people ROM at the day )
The time of registration,as set by our Marriage Registration Department.
I wait around 30 minutes only, quite fast.

wat about at the maju junction there? my fren did it last time very urgently (unplan) without submit any schedule or registration and the penalty is like 20bucks

i also plan for ROM next year. Will it be too early to get the form and submit this year?

Yes, it only allow 6 months in advance

my fiance just called the temple the recent tuesday, and they confirmed that they receive application 3 months in advance

3mths in advance???
what if the date is full?

sorry, i mean the earliest you can submit is 3 months in advance

i am not so sure what if the date is full, you can call them and ask them lor....

Thanks dear

knock knock, is this thread still active?

need some advice here...

heard someone mentioned about the JPN process:
Version 1) both BF and GF must hold an IC from same state???

If both party not from the same state then they will need to go back to their own state to process the document, for eg: BF from Pg needs to submit to Pg JPN and GF from Johor needs to submit to Johor JPN...

How true is this? any one faced this before?

Version 2) If neither of the person is from Selangor/KL state, they cannot process their docs in KL/Sel JPN.
In order to do so either one must change the IC to KL/Selangor state and then process the doc in KL/Selangor JPN...

How true is this????

Version 3) Some one also mentioned that no need to go through the JPN process, just go directly to Then Hout Temple and they can settle everything for us... but i've read numerous places and asked numerous people that this is not true, and that we need to submit our doc beforehand..

Appreciate your help. Thanks!
