Hi mummies At what age did you apply passport for your baby?

From what I know, 1st born passport application is free but this waiver is only until child is 1 year old. However, even if I apply baby passport with his baby photos his face features might change as he grows so no point applying so early to enjoy the free passport waiver. Might as well apply passport for baby when he is 3 to 4 years old so child is recognizable to ICA rather than using his baby photo when we go overseas. Any experience to share ?#advicepls

I applied when she's 1 month old. Because we are going overseas. And if there's need to change if the ICA officer requested, then I do it. Because kids is every 5 years. Before 1 years old you do the free waiver, subsequently, you can change after that. For me no urgency to do it, until you want to travel or if you do not want to miss the waiver. Otherwise, you can wait. Furthermore, this waiver is not compulsory to do.
