My 10-Hour Wait at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs – Any Updates on Document Authentication?

I recently went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to authenticate my educational and non-educational documents. I arrived at 7 a.m., got ticket number 81 – the very last batch – and didn’t leave until about 5 p.m. The wait was exhausting despite my early start. I noticed many people didn’t know the online application code or forgot crucial items like their passport biodata page and passport photo. Since the fee is charged per page, missing anything meant a return trip and extra cost. Has anyone been through this process recently? Did you find any changes or improvements, or is it still as manual and time-consuming? Share your experience!
