Once you select the location below this display will appear.

When you select the date don’t forget to check [Availability] to check still able to proceed or not.

Price is RM270(72 USD). In Japan TOEIC price had increased to 78USD so it’s bit cheaper.

If you tick [Optinal] RM22 will be charge which is creating your TOEIC score as certification.

This time I added but to be honest I don’t think you need this because I never saw it when I did at Japan.

It’s additional documentation but even you not add this you can get the score as usual.
