Two recent photograph with dark blue background;
Applicant’s Identity Card (IC) and 2 photocopy of the IC;
Applicant’s current passport and 2 photocopy of every pages of the passport;
Passport Application Form; (which can be obtained at the Immigration counter at the Embassy)
Payment for the fee of RMB 650 (48 pages)

Please be informed that the new passport will be produced within 3 months as all application will be forwarded to Malaysian Immigration Headquarters, Putrajaya. As the Embassy will not be able to determine exactly the date when the passport is ready, applicant is advised to kindly wait for the information.

Jazz Law, please bear in mind that it takes 3 months for renewing your Malaysian passport, which means that you have to submit the application before April 1, 2012, then you can collect your new passport in time. It is advisable to submit application as soon as possible. The original passport doesn't need to be left in the embassy in the process of the application, once your submit visa application, you can still use the present passport to travel to other country and return to China as long as it is within my passport expiry date of 1st July 2012.

After renewal of passport, you can't transfter the Chinese Residence Permit from old passport to new passport, but you can apply for a new residence permit by using your new passport, just show the Chinese Residence Permit on your old passport.
