Apple 's Independent Repair Provider Program will be made available to Malaysian repair shops soon.
Back in 2019, Apple launched the Independent Repair Provider Program to give small businesses in the U.S. access to genuine parts, training, and resources when performing out-of-warranty repairs on iPhones or Macs. There are a couple of requirements, of course, with applicants required to submit business documents and proof of commercial premises to be a part of the program (among others).
For clarity, this program does not replace the role that Apple Authorised Service Providers play. Instead, the idea is to provide repair businesses with the means and training to offer reliable, out-of-warranty repairs for devices—and with authentic parts.
Apple says that there won’t be a fee to join the program. You will, however, need to commit to having an Apple-certified technician onboard; the certification is also free of charge.
All participating repair providers in the program have access to free training from Apple and the same genuine parts, tools, repair manuals, and diagnostics as Apple Authorized Service Providers (AASPs) and Apple Store locations.
