A mobile phone accessory ordered for just a few ringgit; a household item shipped from overseas at a bargain price. Often, these parcels arrive without any tax being charged.

MMC: Overwhelming Requests Caused The Delay In Issuing Certificates

The Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) has apologised for delays in processing and issuing the 2026 Annual Practising Certificates (APC/PAT), citing an overwhelming surge in applications received toward the end of 2025, many of which came with late supporting documents. The council said in a statement that medical practitioners who submitted applications, made payment and met all requirements by Dec 31, 2025, but have yet to receive their certificates due to ongoing processing in the MERITS system, are allowed to continue practising without enforcement action until the certificates are issued....

The MMC clarified that for complete and compliant applications submitted by the end-2025 deadline, the effective date of the 2026 APC begins Jan 1, 2026, or from the start date of professional indemnity coverage, regardless of approval or certificate issuance dates.
