Hi guys,

in my country they use the words "Bin" or "Binti" for male and female respective. These words mean "son of" and "daughter of" and actually is not part of our names. However, they always show up in the passports.

Should I include it in the First Name section of the application, since it wants the same as passport?

Eg:

Name Shown in Passport: "Jane binti John"

Should I put

First Name: Jane binti OR First Name: Jane ?

Thanks!

Don't worry about it. The same happened with me. They'll just copy paste the name from your passport mo matter what name you use in the online app.
