Key enhancements include:
- An increased number of service counters and higher staffing capacity
- Greater appointment availability to reduce waiting times
- Extended application submission and collection hours
- Optional facilitation services, including document return, SMS updates, photocopying, photograph services, and form-filling assistance
- Strengthened customer support through a toll-free multilingual contact centre, 24×7 IVR access, and AI-enabled digital support channels
