Wait for an email. I apply my CGC on the 8 February 2023 and I get the email for collection of CGC on the 27 February 2023.

You can choose either to collect your certificate at the Consular Service Counter or to receive your CGC via postal service. I choose to collect my CGC at Consular Service Counter Putrajaya. 

Things to bring along during the collection of the certificate:

• CGC Acknowledgement Slip
• Cash payment of Ringgit Malaysia Twenty (RM20)
• Your IC or Passport

On the morning of 28 February 2023, my husband and I went to Wisma Putra. At the guard post, you must scan a QR code. Answer all of the question, only then you get a pass to enter Wisma Putra. The main building is just 2 minutes walking distance. After the main entrance, turn left to go to the Consular Service Counter.

At the first counter, you need to provide your CGC Acknowledgement Slip and Identification Card or Passport. You will received a queue number. Proceed to the second counter. Then, wait for your number to be call out. Please make sure you bring cash with you as you need to make cash payment at the second counter. Overall the process for me to obtain my CGC is under 15 minutes. 

Well that's it. 

Ta-ta for now. Fi Amanillah.
