Hi does anyone knows, if my current passport is still valid for more than 6 months, but I had submitted application for a new passport, can I still travel using my current passport while the new passport application is still in progress?


Thanks.

Should be able to. I recall ICA does not decommission (+ punch hole in) the old passport until the day u collect the new one.

Try calling ICA hotline to double-check?

Found this in the ICA FAQ (under Passport collection-General):
Can I still travel using my current passport if the new passport is ready for collection?
Answer: Prior to the collection of your new passport, you can continue to use your current passport for travels* as long as your current passport has at least six months of remaining validity.

(*The grant of entry into a foreign country is the prerogative of the foreign immigration authority concerned. The possession of a valid passport does not always guarantee entry to foreign countries.)

Since this is the case, if you haven't even been told that your new passport is ready, you can still use your current one.

Even if you have been told that your new passport is ready, but you have yet to collect it in person, you can still use your current passport.

So far Msian immigration via car or bus did not ask to see My Sejahtera. Visited over 2 trips Aeon Bukit Indah, Paradigm, KSL, Aeon Tebrau City. Was only asked to sign into MySejahtera once at Paradigm at drop off point ground floor. DH went into Paradigm via carpark level, no check. All eateries and the one massage place I went to did not ask to see MySejahtera.

The reason why currently there’s no use for MySerjahta is there has been a data compromise & ppl dropped the use. Officially, no more insistence on showing yr vaccination status via MySerjahta. If u’re concern, can print a hardcopy of MOH’s certification & bring along with you. We had not use MySerjahta fr the moment we stepped off plane till we embarked to fly home.
