I hope that this post will smoothen your journey of collecting Form K and your Birth Certificate.
– – – – –
1. You must either receive a hard copy letter stating that your Form K (final renunciation letter) and Birth Certificate are ready for collection or you need to request an email confirmation that your documents are ready for collection. Usually the documents are ready for collection approximately 8 months after renunciation, but there might be unforeseen circumstances leading to your documents not being ready so you would not want to risk. (If you ask me if a phone call confirmation is sufficient, I would say no. However, that’s just my opinion.)
2. You do not need to book an appointment for the collection. Head down Consular Section of MHC between 2.30pm to 4pm, Monday to Friday. Would suggest you start queueing at around 1.45pm as there were already ~30 people in front of me when I arrived at 2pm sharp. I queued under the sun for about half an hour. (Photos below may also encourage you to bring along an umbrella and be an early bird.)
3. Bring along the following documents (Original and two photocopies each in A4 size paper):
i) Singapore IC or 11B Card (photocopy front and back of the document)
ii) Singapore Passport (bio-data page only)
iii) Singapore Citizenship Certificate* (photocopy front & back of the document)
iv) Deed poll / Baptism (if name has been changed / if applicable)
Also, you must bring along the letter stating documents are ready for collection. If you do not have the letter, get ready to show your email confirmation to the officer.
*If you have not received the Singapore Citizenship Certificate, please email ICA (ICA_Citizenship_Unit@ica.gov.sg) to request for a soft copy of the certified true copy. Two photocopies of this is needed as well.
4. At the guard house, you will have to scan QR codes for SafeEntry and Health Declaration (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd_tUssXY3b4EC236Cl4MBtvPd4p0J98Ay-RwVxDZLD4BXoeg/viewform). (Just in case you need help for English, you can read through the questions beforehand.) And as usual, use one of your cards with your NRIC/Name to exchange for a pass to enter.
5. Go to Consular Section. You do not have to take a ticket at the ticketing machine. Just queue at Counter 1 and the officer will collect the necessary documents from you. Next, you just have to sit down and wait.
6. Waited for about 10 minutes for my name to be called. Collected Form K and my Birth Certificate after signing on a document and headed out to get back my card at the guard house.
7. Went home to scan the front and back of Form K and emailed the soft copy to ICA (ICA_Citizenship_Unit@ica.gov.sg).
DONE! I do not think I have to return to MHC for the rest of my life!

You have to apply and get your SG passport first.
I presume you have waited approximately 8 months for the Borang K, during these months, one should have sufficient time to make a passport.
It’s also stated that borang K just needs to be collected within 3 months from the notice/letter, so I see no reason why MHC will allow you to pass without SG passport.

Hi all,

Perhaps things have changed but I remember three months were given for the collection of Borang K, not a specific date.
Citizen ceremony is usually held at the community club of the GRC one lives in, I was told it was postponed until COVID-19 situation gets better. Did they restart this tradition again?
To answer your question, it depends on whether the two clashes in timings. If not, you can go ahead with what you’ve suggested. In any case, the collection of Borang K requires your NRIC and Singapore Citizenship Certificate.

Thanks for the tip. Didn’t know must have EVERYTHING before collecting Borang K. Initially I was under the impression that one needs to submit a copy of Borang K to ICA THEN only they allow collection/citizen ceremony.
Anyway, in my case, the ceremony will be held at a CC on 2 Jan 2021 (maybe by then Phase 3 already?) but no guests will be allowed in. No refreshment even. Short speech, call name, give cert, chop chop I presumed..
So will probably collect everything then head over to MHC to avoid typical Msian-style turnaway hassle. Thanks! 😛

I can’t remember the exact words on the letter, but it should mention Form K (Borang K) as it is quite an important document. There isn’t a scenario raised by my reader that only birth certificate was collected, so you can be quite certain that you will collect both Form K and birth certificate at the same time from MHC.
In any case, if they did not give you Form K during your collection, you can seek clarification from the officers present at MHC then.
