@deedeee is right, you need to go JPN first and fill up some borang (can't remember). Need passport photo(but please check what colour the passport photo needs to be in, I can't remember too, sorry). Then, will need to get a stamp from commissioner of oath, cost a little bit of money, I think a few ringgit? I went to the one near Hartamas last time and they do have commissioner oath there so I can settle one shot. Sometimes he/she may not be there so it really depends on your luck too.

And yes, register through association DOES NOT need to change IC, but for temple, at least one of you must be Buddhist (as per IC). Believe church wedding is the same too.

this is particularly true whether it is thein hou gong, or Chinese commerce association, they require one of the couple to be Buddhist, same with Church.
had a lot of problem going through this last year to arrange the ROM right after MCO 1.0

Why? The IC stored as "Tiada Ugama"? At least that was what my IC states.

oh? not sure about that one, both of us were christian by IC, but Chinese association was the easiest to deal with when it comes to ROM, just pay..but during document check only realized that none of us are Buddhist and they wouldn't process it as they mentioned that JPN will reject the application based on their past experience.

church on the other hand was difficult to work with as they require u to be their church member laugh.gif
it came to the point where I was under one of their "branch" church for almost 20+ years, and only the mother church pastor can do ROM, and mother church side told me that I'm not their church member and wouldn't do the ROM..topkek

In the end, which one did you proceed?

How come chinese association also require either one to be buddhist? They are religious-based association?

That’s the logic I was arguing, doesn’t make any sense…if tian hou gong I understand, but those Chinese chamber something, it’s not even related to religion laugh.gif

In the end church lo..with a letter that states I’m going back to JP soon, so either now or never
