QUOTE(dattebayo @ Aug 17 2022, 04:37 PM) i tried that just now anyway the photographer also need to serve other customers, i can't hog his time, after 2 tries i gave up nonono dont feel sorry for them, passport photo rejection is a normal thing and they should be expecting it. some even ask to 'dont leave the shop' and apply at the spot. the error i had is "there's more than 1 person/image on the picture" she just align it left/right a bit (i was watching her screen), and resend to me. I try it again and BAM, approved. took her less than 1-2 mins. The thing about walk in is - ticket habis (there's limit to visitors per day) - long waiting time - crowded place (covid, smelly, hot, etc) - expensive parking (da fak UTC pudu charge me RM3.60 for less than 30 mins) try your best to do everything online.

Just renewed mine plus new application for kid, in putrajaya, walk in at 7.30pm. Very less people. New application no problem. Renewal die die ask me do online, tried use phone to renew but photo keep not meet specification. Used the desktop provided there and renewed easily.
As long as payment done before 9pm can get it on same day.
