Even after receiving this remark/catatan in their email notification?

I think its important to receive this email notification on "dikehendaki hadir ke Pejabat XXX" for collection.

im renewing my passport online and i am trying to make sure my passport photo meets spec.
but when i check the example provided by imigresen, it looks like even their example photo which has the spec dimensions written, does not actually meet the specs.

so actually need to follow the spec or not?
if need to follow the spec, then i will need to edit my photo. if not, i can just submit as is.

Can.

Go early, take queue number. They'll give you a small yellow form to fill up.

Bring your old passport and mykad.

Make sure you wear dark attire. They'll take your photo there. Some officers very particular about certain things cannot wear. For guys, need to remove earrings. If long hair tied in a bun, the bun cannot be higher than your head. Have to re-tie, etc.
Some officers, cincai.
Mostly very friendly.

They say like wait for 1 hour to collect, after all the process including making payment. Just wait there. You'll see one by one the ppl in front of your queue getting their new passports in no time.

Remember take back your old passport. Sometimes need to carry along when you travel especially if you have visa for certain countries.

I've done mine at UTC Selangor, November last year. Reached before 7am. They opened at 8am. By 10am+ can be done.

Last year did 3 passport renewals online.

First one go local photo shop take "passport" photo, soft copy, RM24. Got rejected. Went to Immigration, took photo at counter. kautim.

Next one, take photo with phone. Adjust bg colour in Photoshop. Accepted.

No 3. Use existing photo, adjust bg colour in Photoshop. OK.

So don't waste money at physical photo shop. If prefer to go shop, the only reliable ones are those near the immigration office. eg: for immigration office at Kajang, there's one just outside.

If you’re going to Pudu utc, there is a shop there called Srata. I went there last week to have my passport renew online by them. They took the photo there and submit for you for a fee of rm30. I renewed 3 passport, not even one gets rejected.

interesting. i already managed to get my photo to pass by editing it myself.
but i think this AI tool is probably a much better way.

Myself needed 3 attempts. First 2 photos the immigration upload rejected and error message said got more than 1 person in the shot (wtf, I confirm no shadows also) and some other nonsense. Third time baru pass. A bit leceh because that passport photo website only allows one free image per account before they ask you to buy credits, so I had to create a new account 3 times using different disposable email aliases, but lucky in the end photo accepted and I got the LULUS email next morning. Take note that you need tap the dropdown arrow, select jpeg and push the slider to 100% or the image file size will be too small. Now I need to wait and see if they will make me reshoot or not when I go to collect.
