During registration, you are required to declare that you have sought consent from the other parent to register your child for MK.

• If you and your current or former spouse cannot agree on the choice of school, you may apply for a Court Order from the Family Justice Courts or the Syariah Court. If you are represented by a lawyer, you may wish to approach your lawyer to apply for a Court Order. As the timeline for registration is tight, try to do so at least 3 months before your child's MK registration.
