How to Renew Passport in the Philippines – Requirements, Procedures 2020

The latest procedures and requirements on how to renew passport in the Philippines this 2020, list of fees and cost of renewing passports are in this page, too. Renewing passport here is easier and faster. Unlike before, we have to wait for many weeks to receive our Philippine passport.

The new Philippine passport is called ePassport, shortcut for electronic passport as it contains electronic information of the passport holder including biometrics and digital signature. The DFA (Department of Foreign Affairs) requires everyone to renew for ePassport. Foreign embassies strictly require ePassports now. Read the statement below:

According to the DFA,

“Per the regulations of the DFA and the standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), all non-machine readable passports may no longer be extended beyond October 31, 2015 and must be completely phased out by November 24, 2015,”

All Filipino nationals holding Machine Readable-Ready Passports (MRRP; green passports) and Machine Readable Passports (MRP; maroon passports) will no longer be allowed to apply for an extension of the validity of these passports after October 31, 2014,”

-DFA statement

New ePassport vs Old Passport

Renewing passport nowadays has less hassles because there are only few requirements and the processing is amazingly fast. You don’t need to bring passport sized photos anymore. Also renewing passport is faster than applying for one the first time, simply because your details are already stored in the DFA database. The staff will just check them and update them in case there are new info to update about you – ie: change of marriage status and surname for females.

Passport Renewal Requirements 2020

  • Personal Appearance of the applicant
  • Application form (download it here)
  • 1 Government issued ID (if without gov’t ID, see list of acceptable IDs here) – original and photocopy
  • Old Passport – original and photocopy pages 1,2,3 (amendment)
  • PSA Birth Certificate – original and photocopy (if old passport was issued May 1995)
  • Processing fee (see list below)

Regular Processing – P950 – 12 working days
Rush Processing – P 1200 – 7 working days

For minor (below 18) personal appearance of the applicant and either 1 of the parents

Passport Renewal Procedures:

Passport appointment or walk-in appointment:

  • If you are in a rush or emergency, you can apply to renew your Philippine passport at the DFA office in your region. They are commonly serving first-come-first-served basis and you don’t need to get an appointment online via this way. UPDATE: As of now, only selected DFA offices now allow online appointment
  • If you are not in a rush, you can make a schedule online to get an appointment. Some DFA branches listed below offer that service now. Although they are the ones who give the date of your appointment (it may be weeks from now or even a month depending on the number of applicants). Once you have appointment, arrive on that date and you can process your passport faster.

Just get or claim your passport on the date stamped on your receipt. What if you can’t come on that date? No worries, you can still claim your passport by going to the DFA Releasing Area and show your valid IDs and receipt. You have at least 6 months to claim it otherwise, it will be disposed.

  1. Good day po sa inyo. Maraming beses na po akong nakapagrenew ng passport ko at ang latest ko po ay epassport na na kailangan ko na rin irenew. Bakit po ako hinihingan ng DFA this time ng Bureau Immigration ID para sa naturalization ko this time? Matagal ko ng naibigay sa DFA ang BI ID ko at naKa encode na yun sa records ko sa DFA. It will take BI 3 to 4 weeks to locate my records. Bago po bang requirement for naturalized Filipino citizens ang hinihingi ng DFA? Isa po itong napakalaking gastos at abala para sa amin na matagal ng may passport. Your response will be highly appreciated.

  3. Based on the passport.gov.ph site as of 01/07/2019:

    CORE REQUIREMENTS

    1. Confirmed Online Appointment
    2. Accomplished Application Form
    3. Personal appearance
    4. Current ePassport with photocopy of data page
    5. Original PSA authenticated documents that will support the change of name and/or marital status (if applicable)
    – Marriage Contract
    – Annotated Birth Certificate
    – Annotated Marriage Contract to show annulment/divorce/court ordered instruction
    – Death Certificate of Spouse

    From what I understand, you will only need to provide Birth Certificate if there’s a change of name and/or marital status or if it’s treated as new application due to circumstances e.g. lost passport. If none, then there’s no need to?

  4. Saan po ba makikita ang valid reason bakit nadi deny ang renewal ng passport? Nagpa renew po ako ng passport at sabi po ng DFA staff eh may posibilidad po na ma denied or ma delayed ito ng 3-4 months. Sinabi niya ito after kunin ang copy ng data and last page ng passport ko, hindi kinuha sa akin ang dala kong copy ng PSA (NSO) at NBI. Since nandun na ako sa DFA Lucena (May 24, 2018), nag agree na lang ako sa mga possibilities na discussed niya sa akin. Valid pa ng 7 months ang passport ko at gusto ko marenew ng maaga kasi may mga offer sa akin na at least 2 years validity dapat ang passport kaya ako nagparenew. Pinasulat pa ako na I request to cancel my valid passport. Paki discuss po sana sa akin ng mga na denied ang passport renewal at ano rin nangyari sa mga naibayad. Express processing po at home delivery po payment ko. Please enlighten me.

      • Hello po, ask lang po sana ako kung ma release ba talaga ang passport po even if it was suspended. Kasi sa wife ko nasuspended dahil kumuha siya nang passport gamit ang married name niya as new applicant at hindi na nya iniliagay ang luma niyang passport information…nang kunin na sana namin ang passport sinabihan siya nga suspended daw kasi hindi niya idineklara ang luma niya passport kaya antay daw siya ng 3-4 months bago makuha at hindi pa sure..may alam po ba kayo na ganito ang sitwasyon??? Please advise…tnx

  6. Trying to apply for a passport renewal for my wife at DFA on-line. On last Friday 4th May the next available date was end of September 2018, over 5 months away, and today it says no available slots on all the Manila DFA locations. I keep reading that it much quicker now for the processing of a passprt; thats good, but if you can not get an appointment, what the point of being faster in the processing. I feel sorry for those that want to take a holiday or go abroad.

    • Ano po kaya ibig sabihin nito?

      It appears your personal information matches one or several other records of individuals who have similar passport information/personal details who may have violated provisions of RA 8239: The Philippine Passport Act of 1996. “Passport processors/evaluators at your chosen application site may request you to produce additional documents and corresponding proof of identity upon interview, in order to ascertain that you are a different individual and consequently approve your passport application.”

  21. Hello!

    I inadvertently entered my birthday as October 26, instead of October 28, on the application form. I only noticed the error after I printed the application form. Is there a way for me to change the entry on the birth date field on the form? Or do I simply need to call the attention of the officer who’ll assist me during my scheduled appointment about the error? I’m afraid that this might affect the processing of my passport.

    Thanks,

    Roger

    Reply
    • Try calling the DFA about the error. I also made the same mistake. I entered the wrong birth place and when I called the DFA branch in Zamboanga about my concern, they told me that it’s okay as long as I mention it to the officer who’ll be assisting me so that they could correct the error. Hope that helps. ?

    • Yes, pwede na kayo sumabay ng application, kasama yun sa privilege ng may 7 y/o below na applicant. Share ko lang yung experience ko nun Jan 25 2018, nagtry kami mag apply ng passport ng 2 yr old baby ko sa satellite office dyan sa ali mall, di na kami tinanggap 11:30am kami nakarating sa site.
      Nakakafrustrate kasi limited lang pala slots na i accomodate nila per day. Wala naman problem sana kung nag bigay ng advisory online since may website naman. Bago pa ako magdecide na iprocess yung passport namin e nagbasa basa ako ng blogs at yung sa dfa website mismo. Paasa lang sa courtesy lane jan sa ali mall. Di ko lang sure kung pati sa main office ganun ang system. Mas prefer ko pa yung by appointment nalang sana. E bago ka makapagproceed sa appointment nakalagay don PWDs, senior, pregnant, single mother, minors 7 yrs old below e no need ng appointment. sablay na sistema, if may changes sana ipost nila yung advisory online…hindi yung sa pinto lang. mababasa ng applicant..sayang pamasahe at effort…

  33. Hi! Just want to double check if what you posted is all you need to bring for renewal of passport?
    Personal Appearance of the applicant
    Application form (download it here)
    1 Government issued ID (if without gov’t ID, see list of acceptable IDs here) – original and photocopy
    Old Passport – original and photocopy pages 1,2,3 (amendment)
    NSO Birth Certificate – original and photocopy (if old passport was issued May 1995)

    My passport and my kids are all the new ones (issued last 2012/2013). No need for NSO or PSA certificates or other supporting documents?

  35. Hello po! I badly need some advise. Sana po matulungan nyo ako. Its so early pa naman kaso I want to know the possibilities and alternatives sa case ko. My passport will be expired by February 2019. We are planning to travel abroad by last week of August up to September 2018, for almost a month. By that period my passport will only be valid for 6 months or less and I am afraid that by the time of visa application maging factor pa yun ng visa denial. Or if ever I will be granted a visa baka yung Immigration officer sa Naia or airline check-in staff di na ako payagan umalis ng bansa. By last week ng May 2018 ang plan namin mag lodge ng visa application sa embassy. Sa tingin ko by January or February 2018 dapat mag process na ako ng passport renewal (or extension?) para there will be enough time just in case mag ka delay sa DFA.

    Possible po ba ang naiisip ko? Or theres no way na makapag renew/extend ako ng passport validity that early? How about asking for valid passport cancellation? Para makapag renew ng passport?

    Pa advise po please. Thank you.

    • My daughter’s passport will be expired on January 2019 pero nparenew ko habang nsa bakasyon ako s pinas last August lng at na released naman agad after a week kse we are also planning to travel next year kaya habang nsa bakasyon ako pina renew ko na dahil minor lang sya at pra nde mgkron ng problema sa pag lodge nmin ng visa application next year. Policy kse ng immigration na at least 6 months valid ang passport mo allowed ka mag travel. Pero kng malapit na ma expired at nsa ibang bansa ka u only allowed to return to your home country but you are not allowed to travel in other countries.

    • Hi Grace,

      Definitely Hindi ka pasasakayin kapag less than 6 months valid Ang passport. Na experience ko Na Yan, at nalaman ko pa NSA airport Na ako. Malayo pa naman Ang travel mo you have so much time to renew. You can actually set an online appointment na, pagka alam ko by now December sched Na Ang makukuha mong schedule.

  37. Hi there. I really need a passport and there are no any available slots in DFA Lipa and in Metro Manila. I really need one as I need to travel on January. The only available that I can see is in Davao. Pwede ba mag apply ng passport kahit hindi ka taga dun? If so, can they deliver from Davao to Batangas because I am from Batangas. I’m not sure if DFA Lipa accepts walk-in applicants.

  43. Hello po! Ask ko lang po kung paano magrenew ng passport. Dual Citizen po ako, pinanganak ako sa America at yung both parents ko Filipino. Ask ko lang kung paano ang gagawin ko, Nung 2001 ako dumating ng Pilipinas at simula nun hindi na naayos mga papeles ko kasi yung mother ko po nilayasan kami ng father ko, kaso yung father ko nag ibang bansa din. Bale nasa father side ako kaso hindi naayos lahat ng papers ko at napabayaan dahil walang magaasikaso.. Nung 2011 umuwi ang father ko at nagpunta kami ng sa US Embassy para irenew ang passport ko kaso ang sabi nila yung mother daw ang kelangan. So since mag 18 na ako this year kelangan ko pa ba ang mother ko? At pwede ba ako gumawa ng Philippine Passport ko?

  47. Hi there fehl gud day. i have an inquiry regarding passport which i thought you might have encountered. The expiry date of my passport is on aug 7 2018. Also on 2018 i have scheduled a flight to japan on march. This would mean that my travel now falls within the 6months validity period prior to expiry. When would you suggest be the appropriate month to set an appointment?and can i set it as early as june now?and for the rest of 2017, am i still qualified to travel having booked 3 destinations for the remainder of 2017?. Thank you very much for your kind assistance.ryan

    Reply
    • Your passport will no longer be accepted for your Japan trip on March 2018. Immigration Officer might deny your entry. Be sure to have it renewed months prior to your flight – that is if you already have a valid visa to japan in your current passport. If you don’t have a visa yet, you should have it renewed early and make sure you have the new passport at hand before applying for Japan visa. If you have travels for the rest of 2017, use it first. Get an appointment for passport renewal by early January 2018 to be safe.

  49. Hello everyone! tanong po, from “Single” Status passport mag-renew po as “Married”, anong ilalagay ko po kaya sa “Surname” on online application form, Maiden Surname ko pa din since am renewing my old or automatically Married surname na? Want to double check as to avoid any hassles/aberya pagdating na sa DFA, or pwede naman i-edit dun mismo? At para di din sayang ang efforts am from NCR dadayuhin pa namin probinsya para magrenew kasi no slots na until Sept 2017 dito sa NCR dahil sa mga travel agencies. :/

    Also, may kasama kaming kid 2yo, pag pinila po ba namin sya sa courtesy lane sya lang ang ma-ke-cateran tas kami ng asawa ko pipila ulit sa normal lanes or pwede isabay yung sa amin or ipila na lang lahat sa regular lanes? Marami pong salamat sa makakasagot! 🙂 Happy weekend!

    Reply
    • Charlotte,

      I’m not sure about the surname changes but whoever the one attending to you at DFA normally would ask if all details are ok….so Pwede ka dun magpa correct.

      About regular appointment naman, since sabi mo no slots na until Sept2017, I would suggest to still get regular appointments the earliest u can get online for the adults ha. Kung ok naman lahat documents mo Kahit bukas pumila kayo sa courtesy lane with your kid. Someone already posted here na when pinila kid Nya sa courtesy lane eh isinabay na rin sya sa pag renew. I don’t know if luck lng yun but no harm in trying. Just make sure na dalhin mo rin ung online appointment form mo just in case itanong duon Kung may appointment ka. If makalusot then you can just cancel ur online appointment.

    • unlikely. Yung gwardya pa lang titignan na mga dokumento mo : hahanapin appointment form etc.

      Sana man lang may Visa ka na.

      and by the way there is no such thing as “courtesy lane” — ang courtesy na sinasabi e pauunahin ka lang sa pila (kids, pwd’s, ofws, matatanda) . And I believe nag-Online reservation din mga yun kase nga kahet may appointment form ka pa pagdating mo dun pipila ka pa rin. (otherwise dadagsa ang mga walk-ins na mga bata, matanda, pwd etc kung ganun lang kadali ang walk-ins)

      If pasok ka sa mga NSA list Na pupwede pumila sa courtesy lane, yes no need for online application, Just download the application form and bring it to DFA on the day Na mag walk-in ka together with the other requirements. My senior mom was assisted in Megamall even without the downloaded form. Nagka prob Lang sya kasi the BC she had was not properly authenticated. Try checking the complete list of those people allowed to line up sa courtesy lane Baka sakali.

        If sa duration ng travel mo sa Thailand ay below 6 months valid Ang passport mo malamang Di ka palusutin sa airport. Kung makalusot ka man sa airport dito sa pinas Baka sa Thailand ka magka problema, may possibility pa na magbayad ka ng malaki as penalty sa ibang bansa. So yes dapat mag renew kna.

    • base sa experience ko, mas mabuting sa embassy ka na lang magparenew at i-bypass yung pila ng mga first timers, kids, persons w disabilities, elders sa pilipinas… mabubwisit ka lang sa sistema.

      Renewal na parang hindi renewal.——(Ganun din ang presyo, bilang ng araw 7 0r 15, Ganun din requirements kahet e-Passport pa (been there, done that). Basically parang first-timer ka lang din ang dadanasin mo sa pilipinas.

    • Passport appointment or walk-in appointment:

      If you are in a rush or emergency, you can apply to renew your Philippine passport at the DFA office in your region. They are commonly serving first-come-first-served basis and you don’t need to get an appointment online via this way. UPDATE: As of July 2016, only selected DFA offices now allow online appointment.

    Ask ko lang po, my aunt is in US right now and gusto nya magrenew ng green passport nya issued 2006. Nabasa ko sa DFA page na 1 of the requirement is NSO birth certificate. However, when we requested for her birth certificate negative result. Is it possible na NSO marriage certificate lang ang ipresent nya sa Philippine Consulate since renewal na lang naman siya.

    Please advise. Thank you very much

    Reply
    • Gerlie, the PSA Birth cert is a newly added requirement for those still with old passport green & maroon. I would assumed that her BC presented previously was not yet in secpa & probably from her municipal place of birth. It turned negative coz no copy yet in NSO so better send a copy to NSO & apply for late registry.

  93. I have an MRP passport with expiration date of Dec. 2017. I already have an appointment set for Jan. 23, 2017. I’m kinda confused with the birth certificate requirement though.

    A.) The blog says:

    NSO Birth Certificate – original and photocopy (if old passport was issued May 1995)

    B. ) DFA website says:

    Machine Readable Passport (MRP without IC Chip logo) issued in the year 2007 needs a birth cert.

    * So if I understand it correctly, my old passport is not in any of the categories listed in both the blog and DFA website. Does that mean a birth certificate is not required?

    Reply
    • I’ve been checking out requirements, too. And I understood it that same as you did. The birth certificate is no longer required. Do a double check, though. Your passport should be brown with a chip (rectangle with a circle inside) below the word PASAPORTE.

      Also, when I renewed my passport in 2013, I think they did not ask for a birth certificate even though I brought one.

      Reply
      • Well, my passport is an MRP without a chip. I would be certain about the birth certificate being not required when renewing if I already have an ePassport (the one with the chip). But I have the one without the chip and this is what creates the confusion.

        My Mother recently renewed her passport a few days ago and she said that a birth cert was not required. I believe she had the the MRP without chip passport too. I’m just making sure of everything before going through with this.

I am currently working as OFW in Australia. To have all the documents ready the way they want it I need to spend 30k pesos. I just decided to go home next week, just book my flight, and will be in the PHP for 3 days just to renew my sons passport. I am just worried that they will not accept as I don’t have appointment for the said renewal. I really need it as only my eldest passport was expired and they need to fly by March to be with us.

    • Erwin, I think Di na requirement Ang OEC sa OFWs, better go to POEA (dito ata yung parang one stop shop for OFWs) at DFA Robinsons (Ito naman ata Ang DFA branch exclusive for OFWs).

      Meanwhile, check mo ulit Ang list nG allowed persons Sa courtesy lane Malay mo Meron Isa dun na pasok ka example Baka naman May kilala ka Sa any branch nG DFA, DFA employee can give referrals 3 persons per month para Sa courtesy lane, or Baka naman govt employee ka may list Kung sino sino pde Sa courtesy lane.

      Kung Di ka tlga ubra Sa courtesy lane, Mas mainam na mag appointment ka pa rin khit Sa January pa Ang available….then mag try kna punta Sa 2 mentioned above offices and mag try ka na. You can cancel naman your appointment kapag umokey na renewal mo dun Sa nabanggit Kong offices.

        • Erwin, definitely yung anak mong 1 yr old pde Sa courtesy lane. No harm in trying Kung Isabay mo ung renewal mo, Kaya I ready mo na rin ang documents mo with connection Sa pagiging OFW mo. Sure or not na makagamit ka nG courtesy lane I suggest na magpa online appointment ka pa rin Gaya nG sabi ko Sa previous reply ko. Madali naman I cancel yun if ever.

  117. Hi,

    Can anyone here help me and give info on the fastest way to renew a passport. I need to renew my passport for my US visa application and I need to have the renewal ASAP. I tried to look for a slot for online application but the earliest available slot is already in December. Is there any other way? Thank you so much in advance for the help.

    Reply
    • Marc,

      The fastest is via courtesy lane in which there are only specific person/s allowed to line up without the appointment. If you are: PWD/Senior Citizen, Childre below 7yrs, OFW, Etc…better check internet for complete list of those who can use the courtesy lane. Or if your case is a medical emergency or death, you can use courtesy lane. Or if u know someone working at DFA, employees are allowed to give 3 referrals per month.
      If you didn’t fall in any of the mentioned situation or person then appointment online is the only way.

          • Thanks for your reply! We went there yesterday. I accompanied my 2-year-old and my husband accompanied my 5-year-old. We arrived around 3-3:30pm and finished 5pm. We were accommodated as a family because their rule is 1child = 1adult. There was no hassle. When entering the gate we just said courtesy lane because of my kids (minor = forgot if it is 7 years old and below or below 7 years old). I prepared everything we needed beforehand. I printed out our forms from the DFA website, photocopied our old passports (front and back) and IDs, and I had our birth certificate in PSA paper. Make sure your birth certificate and marriage certificate are all in PSA paper and not NSO paper. So, when we arrived there we had no hassle at all. I just handed over our forms and waited for our number. Hope this info could help others in the same situation too.

        • Arlyn, wow that’s good news! And thank you rin for coming back here sa thread to share this good news….at least may patotoo at additional info tayo nakuha sa experience mo. Goodluck sa kung saan man Ang travels nyo!

  124. Hi, I have a question. My passport expired last year September 26, 2015. If I renew it do I have to bring a birth certificate? I don’t have a copy of my birth certificate yet. I only have the photocopy of my birth certificate. I lost the original copy. I already requested for a new copy however it will come 3-5 working days from now. and I really want to apply for my passport earlier next week. Is it okay if I don’t have the NSO birth certificate? I have all other requirements especially my two past expired passports. Hope to hear from you

    Reply
    • Jacob,
      If old passport is an e-passport, no need for the birth certificate if you are applying for renewal. For renewal, you only need the old epassport and 2 supporting documents. Please refer to list in DFA website for supporting documents.

    • If you are in a rush or emergency, you can apply to renew your Philippine passport at the DFA office in your region.

    • Have ur docs ready at pumila kna agad Sa courtesy lane. Then ask mo yung NSA DFA if pde na wag muna I cancel Ang old passport mo kc kamo may travel kpa. assuming na Di pa under 6 months valid Ang passport ha. If applicable p din yung Rush nilang 7 days this is actually 9 days including weekends, Kaya definitely Di mo na aabutin ang release. Mag iwan kna LNG ng authorization letter Kung sinoman s relative mo Ang kukuha ng new passport mo. But you need to mail back ur existing passport Sa representative mo kc need I present ung old passport at bubutasan Nila yun saka LNG irelease Ang new passport. Also try ask Baka naman pwede extension na LNG ng validity para maka vacation ka Sa December without renewing ur passport. Though alam ko Wala na yung service nilang pang validity extension, Pero Malay mo mapagbigyan ka. good luck!

Requirements 1) old passport which I supposed na e-passport na ung old nyo. If not po kc may additional requirements. 2) 1 Gov issued picture ID like SSS/GSIS, PRC ID, Senior Citizen ID. 3) 2 supporting documents like PSA Marriage Contract, NBI Clearance, Brgy Clearance, Police Clerance etc. iphotocopy nyo na rin ung page 2 (data page) nG old e-passport nyo. Plus syempre Yung application form, you can download copy from DFA website.

  136. Hi, good afternoon! I’m just a little confused if a BC is really needed (some say yes, some say it’s not needed). My sister told me that e-passport holders don’t need BC for renewal (which is for her case) but for me, I’m not an e-passport holder, mine was issued last October 2009 (looks like it’s maroon to me, same color as the e-passport just without the box image below the word ‘Pasaporte’) and expired in 2014. Do I still need to bring a BC? Also, if I have a BC that I got last 2014/2015, can I use that or do I need to get a newly issued one? Thank you!!

    Reply
    • Also, I have a senior citizen with me who will be renewing and she will be doing a walk in. I was looking at the Gov.ph courtesy lane requirements, says needed are BC and valid ID. Her passport was issued also in 2009 and expired 2014. BC still needed and if ever, can we use a BC that was issued in 2014/2015? Thanks again!

      Reply
      • Just an update in case anyone like me is wondering. I just spoke with DFA, I need a certified true copy of the BC, government ID, passport and photocopies of the passport and ID. For senior citizen, same, if married, certified true copy of marriage certificate is needed also. Doesn’t matter if it’s an old copy from NSO/PSA as long as it’s still in good condition and clear writing.

    • Based on experience, Hindi ka papayagan umalis pag below 6 months na LNG Ang validity ng passport. Sa akin nga 6 months & 2 days valid pa Pero aabutan ng under 6 months since 1 week sana ako Sa Vietnam. May possibility rin na paalisin ka Kung tlgang ipipilit mo cguro pero may risk kasi na Di ka papasukin Sa Bansa na pupuntahan mo at malamang ma penalty kpa.

  148. Quick question. My fiance is in the Philippines and her passport expires in June 2017. We are working on her fiance visa and she is wondering if she can renew the passport now. We already gave the officers her current passport information but she wants to renew it so its valid and new before she has to do the interview at the embassy. I saw that she can actually renew it at anytime. Just wanted to ask and make sure she can do it. It expires in 10 months. Thank you.

    • “I saw that she can actually renew it at anytime. Just wanted to ask and make sure she can do it.” – Yes, she can renew it anytime. Advance happy wedding and a blissful marriage to both of you.

      Reply
    • Yes, definitely she can renew it so tell her to get an appointment online for I think the DFA is now offering Oct/Nov 2016 schedules.

  149. What if the owner of the passport is in another country.. Can another person renew it on hi/her behalf? What are the requirements?

    Reply
    • Other people could jot renew the passport on someone’s behalf cause personal appearance is needed for the picture and signature since you do it in front of the dfa personnel. Your friend can try renewing it in the Philippine embassy in the country he/she’s staying though it would take much longer.

      Reply
    • I don’t think it is allowed since they need to take a picture of the applicant. And the old passport needs to be presented as well.

    • If you can proceed with the online appointment without the old passport info then just go for it. Pag May sched kna, call their hotline 737-1000 at magtanong tanong k dun para if ever na May dpat kpang gawin magawa mo na before ur appointment sched. Importante makakuha ka ng schedule.

Nagsearch po ako ng rush passport processing and sawhttp://www.telephonepassportexpress.com , valid po ba ito? Looking forward for your reply ma’am. Medyo na-stress po ako. Thanks

    • There is a rush processing with 7 business days on some offices like dfa aseana (regional offices takes longer I think since their rush is 15 days, can’t remember where I got that info) but I am not sure if they would allow walk in since the online appointment takes weeks. Try calling in dfa office regarding the matter.

  152. Hi. Ask ko lang pano kung magpa renew ako paasport ko pero ipachange ko ung surname ko without any legal documents? Gamit ko kasi my entire life ay ung sa father ko pero sa birth certificate ko ay late registered ako, so lumalabas na ang surname ko ay ung sa mother ko at wala ako middle name. Sa mga prev passport ko, gamit ko ang surname ng mother ko. Gusto ko sanang baguhin kasiang gamit ko sa lahat ng school and work records ko ay ung surname ng father ko pati sa middle name ng anak ko na iaapply ko din ng passport soon.. gets po ba? Ano po bang nasusunod sa name ng passport, based on birth certificate or school/work/govt records??? I need an answer. Please po help me. Thank you.

    Reply
    • Your birth certificate is more legitimate than your school and work records (those are just supporting documents in the dfa personnel’s eyes. Your birth certificate is a government record (what other document are you pertaining). What did your parents show in your school that they admitted you using your father’s surname when your BC was stating another name. Try asking the dfa office regarding the matter. I think the worse case you’ll have is they would ask you to officially apply a change of name with the government so that you can take your father’s surname.

  154. Hi, may I ask what is the meaning of the message below “** IMPORTANT **” regarding the violated provisions of RA 8239, etc… We are quite worried if this will affect my passport renewal. Or is the message below the ” **IMPORTANT** ” is just a system generated message. Pls. enlighten me since my appointment for renewal is on Wednesday, Aug 10. Another question is can I just pick up my renewed passport instead of via courier to avoid delay? Pls. see below captured message from my email verification of my appointment. Thank you.

    “If you do not confirm within 72 hours, your provisional appointment will be automatically cancelled to give way to other applications.

    For applicants who can’t make it on their appointment schedule date, kindly use the “Cancel Appointment” feature inside “View Appointment” at least 3 work days before your appointment to avoid problems in your future applications.

    ** IMPORTANT **
    It appears your personal information matches one or several other records of individuals who have similar passport information/personal details who may have violated provisions of RA 8239: The Philippine Passport Act of 1996.

  155. hi, my passport just expired last June and i’m planning to apply for a renewal at SM Megamall. Is it possible to just walk in there instead of setting an appointment? I called their hotline and the person who answered said that all renewal and applications are to be done now by appointment. Just wanna verify if this is true. thanks!

    Reply
    • Mark,

      All applicants must get appointment online unless you belong to those who are allowed to go thru courtesy lane. people like OFWs, Pregnant Women, children below 7 yrs old, Senior Citizens, PWDs etc can do without the online appointment. Try search online complete list of individuals who can use the courtesy lane and check if your situation will fall in any one. If none, then an online application is the way for you. Or go to Regional DFA Offices like in Batangas, Lucena etc.

      I guess new applicant ka kc no need ng BC Sa renewal. Anyway, Hindi naman nai specify na kailangan na may validity ung BC at MC so I guess ok Lang na Kahit last year mo pa na secure Ang mga Ito basta naka SECPA or authenticated. Copy. Para maka siguro ka better call their hotline 737-1000.

      • Hello po,

        Bakit po sa Requirements – Passport renewal, may nakalgay na ganito

        Machine Readable Passport (MRP) issued in the year 2007:

        Bring original passport and photocopy of data page and last page of passport
        Birth Certificate (BC) in Security Paper (SECPA) issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) or Certified True Copy (CTC) of BC issued by the Local Civil Registrar (LCR) to determine complete place of birth. Transcribed Birth Certificate from the LCR is required when entries in PSA Birth Certificate are blurred or unreadable

        Na-issue ung Passport ko nung 2012, pero alam ko Machine Readable pa cya. Pwede na po kaya ung NSO birth certificate lang?. Khit hndi na ung PSA with SECPA?

        Reply

Ok lang po ba yun? Will they question it kapag kinorek ko ang birth place ko sa day nang renewal ko? is this form that i filled up eh final form na? or ok lang po ba na may corrections ako?

  167. Hi there, I’m about to renew my passport on Aug 2 in Baguio and I live in Manila BTW. Had to do it there since that’s the earliest appointment I could get.

    Got 2 queries, first , I had a different signature on my old passport coz I got it in 2002 and since then I had made changes on my signature will it affect my renewal.

    The other questions is, for my req I have my SSS ID then supporting doc are voter’s ID, TOR and cedula which I got Jan 2016. Is my cedula acceptable. I will also bring with me my ITR but it’s FOR 2015 since I went on hiatus from work from early 2015 till Jan 2016. Also, my signatures for my SSS and voter’s ID have a slight difference. Is that going to hinder my renewal. Appreciate if you could answer these for me. Thanks!

    Reply
    • I think it’s ok as long as your new signature is the same with your signature on your IDs. SSS ID and Voter’s ID are enough valid IDs. If the DFA staff won’t consider the differences with your signature, prepare for more supporting docs like NBI clearance, Police Clearance

You better check dyan Sa country na panggagalingan mo if they allow na maka depart ka khit lapit na mag expire passport mo. Now, if Hindi ka naman OFW or in any conditions under courtesy lane you need to make an appointment na online.

Anyway, if online appointment ka I doubt na may aabutan kpang Aug nor even September schedule…Baka Oct/ November na available by this time, try mo I check online kung Anong month na Ang available online. The fastest way LNG to renew is via courtesy lane kc no need na to have an appointment Ito yung madalas pa ding tinatawag na walk-in but Hindi lahat pde Sa courtesy lane. May mga Tao LNG like PWDs, Senior Citizens, Children below 7yrsold, OFWs, Pregnant Women, etc. Ang allowed Sa courtesy lane.

  180. Hello! I-confirm ko lang po sana. Kapag renewal ng passport ay hindi na kailangan pa ng NBI Clearance as long as kumpleto ka nga Government Valid IDs? Salamat po.

      Pwede mo na rin dalhin yang NBI mo sa bag mo at yang valid ID just in case.

    Nakapagset na din nman po ako ng appointment ko (sept.8,2016 sa dfa lucena), kaso naghahanap pa ako way para mas mapabilis yung pagkuha ko passport?

  183. Hello everyone,

    My tanong din ako about passport renewal. Currently nasa Saudi ako at nakaset umuwi sa pinas this coming December 30,2016. Ang validity ng passport ko is until May 10,2017. Allow pa kaya ako umuwi ng pinas kahit less than 6 months at doon nalang irenew ang passport ko? Anyway 50days naman stay ko sa pinas.

    Another one, aside sa pagrenew balak ko din sanang magchange ng family name sa passport since kinasal na ako at kelangan ko gamitin ang married name ko since my pending visa application ako sa US at apelyido ng asawa ko na andon. Sakaling magpapalit ako ng family name sa pinas thos vacation, makakasok pa rin kaya ako ng Saudi kahit ang nasa visa ko ay maiden name while ang sa passport married name?

    Thank you.

    Reply
    • If may way na IPA renew mo na while NSA Saudi kpa eh gawin mo na kesa Kung kelan ka paalis saka mo pa malalaman na Di ka papalusutin pa pinas. Though I think I allow ka pa naman dito pinas then dito kna mag renew. Abangan mo na online appointment, Sa ngayon kc I think Oct/Nov na Ang available. Around Aug or September mag check kna Baka available na Ang January schedule.

      Sorry no idea ako status change, though Ang alam ko pde mo I retain Ang single surname mo sa passport khit may asawa kna

  185. Hi,

    Good day.

    Gusto ko po malaman kung pwede po ba tlaga ang mag walk-in application ng renewal of passport kapag rush. Pumunta po kasi ako sa dfa alabang, sabi nila hindi daw po sila tumatanggap ng walk-in applicant. Sa alabang lang po ba hindi tumatanggap ng walk-in applicant (renewal)? Saan pong branch pwede mag walk-in renewal of passport?

    Reply
    • Lahat po ng branch ng DFA ay tumatanggap ng walk-in kung ikaw ay OFW, PWD,Pregnant,Senior Citizen, at empleyado ng gobyerno
      Pag po sa nabanggit ay hindi pinayagang magrenew ay kamo ay magresign na ang namumuno dun

      pero sa mga regular na magpaparenew ay via online na po at dun kayo bibigyan ng inyong petsa para makapagparenew,
      Kung gusto mo nman sa amin sa Lipa batangas Robinson branch ay pwede kang pumila dun ng madaling araw dahil marami ang pumupunta dun para makakuha ka ng date para bumalik at magparenew

      Reply
        • Kung Wala ka Sa listahan ng pwede pumila Sa courtesy lane, ONLINE appointment ka tlga or Sa regional ofc Gaya Sa Lipa ka punta at dun pumila ng maaga. Iba kasi Ang schedules Nila duon compared Sa NSA Online. Mas may chance na makakuha ka ng earlier sched than online.

          • Malabo Sa 1 week kc 7 working days Ang Rush pag isinama mo pa Ang weekend at least 9 days frm the dap ng appointment mo.

    • Opo.
      Kasi ang express nila ay 7 working days -1200

      Tapos at the 8th working day pwede mo na kunin. i deliver na ng LBC or pwede mo kunin na sa branch kung san ka nag renew. Mas maganda kunin mo nlang sa branch san ka nag renew para di ka ma delay dahil sa LBC

      Reply
    • Regular Processing – P950 – 15 working days
      Rush Processing – P 1200 – 7 working days total (9calendar days)

      suhestyon – kung malapit ka sa embahada jan sa bansa na kinalalagyan mo eh masmabuti na jan ka na lang magrenew.

      sampong araw ay hindi sapat para sa pagrerenew ng passport lalo na kung nasa probinsya ka pa.

      ibigay mo na lang ang sampong araw mo sa iyong mahal sa buhay sa pagbobonding kaysa sa pagpoproseso na pwede namn gawin bago ka umuwe ng pinas.

    • Just bring the old passport with the valid visa. For questions that require quick reply I suggest na mag send din kyo ng message/query nyo Sa Twitter & FB accounts ng DFA, Teleserve or Bureau of Immigration. I tried this means at sumasagot naman sila.

    • Good Day po, expired na po passport ng anak ko this month and his a minor.. Both parents are working abroad. I secure an SPA and a parent consent in the embassy so the grandmother can process the renewal and this is the second time na ang lola ang mag renue and in the same place. Pero ngayon ayaw nilang e renue kasi need daw ng birth cert na naka red ribbon. Besides sa ibinigay na requirements ng DFA di naman nakasulat dun na need ng red ribbon. Bagong policy po ba eto? Maraming salamat po.

    • Need to renew passport asap as I already made travel plans this coming August but dfa is asking for a nso copy of birthcert with barcode .. I only have the nso copy without the barcode and it will take 15 days to request for a Barcoded nso BC. Is there any chance that they will accept the bC that I have if I present my case ?

      • If this is for renewal, I wonder why they asked for a BC when it is not a requirement in renewing passport. Is the barcoded BC the same as the BC in SECPA paper? This only take few days if you order online.

    Ask ko lang po, I am a U.S permanent resident and a green card holder. I came to Philippines last Nov.18, 2015 due to my parent were sick. I had to stay to look after my mom, And I didn’t noticed until now that my passport will expired in Feb. 11, 2016., In short I forgot to renew my passport 6 months prior to expiration date. The thing here is, I have a confirmed flight back to the U.S this Feb 28, 2016. Bukod sa pinababalik na po ako ng employer ko, I also need to take care of my personal properties in the U.S kaya need ko napo talaga bumalik. Do you think, ma ga grant po kaya ako agad ng bagong passport para maka exit sa country on my departure date?

    In addition to that, meron po akong nabasa na pwede raw po ako mag ask ng “Extension of Validity, ayan po ung other option na naiicip ko kung diko agad makukuha ang bagong passport ko bago ang flight date ko which is Feb 28, 2016.

Ask ko lang po, magrerenew po ako ng passport na nag expired 2 years ago, pwede po ba akong magapply walk in kasi rush at kailangan ko na yung passport. ok lang po ba yung birth certificate at marriage contract copies from NSO issued 2009 na gamitin.

    Marami pong salamat.

    I need your advice please, i lost my passport just last week plus i need to renew it because it will expire on august 2016. I will be travelling abroad for employment and i need a renewed passport before july 2016. Is it okay if i apply for lost valid passport and renew it at the same time? and if so, do i need to bring the required documents for both lost valid passport and renewal of passport? thank you and good day.

    • You only need to submit requirements for lost passport such as affidavit of loss and police report as your lost passport was still valid. You also need valid IDs and NSO BC or NSO MC if you’re married

        • You can call DFA Hotline 834 3000 and 834 4000. I called them just now, I ask if I can renew my passport in Pampanga even though I got it from Manila, okay lang daw.

          Then I ask if there’s any branch that still accepts walk-in applicants, the lady on the phone said that provincial branches of DFA don’t do appointments only walk-ins.

  258. because if you are renewing your passport outside the Philippines, NSO is not required, your old original passport is suffice. Kc sa totoo lng wla naman nabbago s details natin s NSO, bkit need nating mag present ng bagong NSO certificate everytime na mag rerenew tyo ng passport. Actually, additional expenses lang ito pra s mga Applicant. I understand na magpresent ng updated NSO Certificate kapag may update ka s records mo like change of status from Single to Married. Pero kung wla nmng pagbbago i cannot understand the reason for providing one.

  265. Good afternoon Madam,

    Just want to get a confirmation.
    I had already applied for a renewal of my passport last Tuesday, Oct 6. I am scheduled to get the new passport on Oct. 20 to 23. However I need to apply for a Korean visa already because I may leave end of October. If I apply for the Korean visa on Oct. 20, there may not be sufficient time.

    Because of this I was thinking of going back to DFA, Mega Mall and apply for an extention of one year, which I was told I could get on the following day.

    However, if I get my new passport on Oct. 20, they will cancel my existing passport which has the stamped Korean visa. Can I get my new passport when I come back from Korea? I think yes, because you said you could get the new passport within six months.

    But I just need confirmation that my interpretation is correct.

    Thanks for your prompt reply.

    I wish you can help me. My daughter renewed her passport on July3. The release date is July 17 but the last day is Philippine holiday. I am afraid that we can’t get her new passport before July 22 which is our flight date back to Australia. I would like to know if there are any solution for this like special travel document. Now, there is a notification on DFA website that because of the delay, emergency passport applicant for renewal can apply for extension of their passport. It wasn’t there before July 17. It was posted just right after I called them on July 16. My daughter needs to go back to school and I don’t know what to do. Her old passport has got holes on it already. Can you please advice me on what to do. I’ll appreciate your reply. Thank you.

  292. Hi Mam :

    I went to DFA Megamall last June 23, 2015 to renew my passport. My old passport used my name in my birth Certifcate because I need to have one due to an official business abroad.

    When the guy in the verification section saw all my documents, he wants me to produce an ID with the surname written in my birth certificate. I told him that I can’t because the name in my birth certificate is not properly filled up by the midwife.

    I really need to renew my passport because I will be travelling to Vietnam in October. Can’t I be issued the same name in the passport that was issued to be by DFA?

    Please advise on what to do. Thank you so much.

  298. Hello!

    I’m a little bit concerned with my passport kasi I put a transparent passport case to protect it. But then, medyo nag crumple yung side pero konti lang and hindi naman halata (if nasa case). Imagine when yung notebook sa tagal ginamit parang nagcu-crumple yung sides nya? I did not remove the case kasi baka lumala.

    Question is:
    -When traveling, need po ba tanggalin yung case upon presenting it to the immigration? Kahit transparent plastic case?
    -Is there “qualifications” po ba na hindi valid yung passport due to it’s appearance?

    Looking forward po for your reply. Thanks!

    • If I were you, replace your passport na because some officers are very strict even if there is a little misalignment at the side of the passport. Don’t use a case and just keep your passport handy and secured. Passport contains microchip and the covers are so sensitive

    • Passport release here in the Philippines is 10 working days. But DFA branches in Manila require online appointment before you renew it. Because of many online appointments, some people’s schedule fall on the next weeks or month. But DFA provinces like Robinsons Pampanga don’t require online appointment. Instead, applicants are served first-come-first-served basis. Passport release for that is a little bit faster if you’re in a hurry.

    On the Immigration site they say 6 mos before the expiration, but what i don’t understand is it the 6 mos validity, before and after the travel or only before traveling? Say I already leave on May to June may passport is still valid but my problem is my travel will take until July which is already in the 6 mos duration after the travel. Please advice. Thanks. Gbu. 🙂

First, I renewed it last feb 9 2015 and I paid 1200 pesos for express processing coz it says took only 7 days to release but up to now I haven’t receive my new passport. Sad to say, the person paying 950.00 can get their passport on March 1. It’s useless to pay 1200 when in fact the release is the same as you pay 950.00. What’s wrong with this country. Please deliver my passport asap I need it now.

    • At least 1 gov’t issued ID, old passport, NSO BC. If you don’t have gov’t issued ID, DFA might request supporting docs. They require 3 usually because some docs don’t have same info of the applicant so 3 or more to be sure to avoid going back to DFA. I think old NSO BC is accepted no need to get a new one

  387. Wait, so if you’re renewing a passport, required ba talaga yung 3 supporting documents? Kung may driver’s license as the valid ID, will I still need anything else?

      • We are renewing (2nd time) our passports (mine, my wife & my two daughters aged 20 & 17) covered by family application and secured an appointment date on Feb. 20. We already got today our birth certificates and marriage certificate from NSO however, my wife only has postal ID & PhilHealth as proof of identification while my daughters has their school IDS and nothing else. Do we still need to secure Police Clearance and Barangay Clearance as supporting documents? If so, this is more stringent and bureaucratic compared to the first time we apply for passports and the renewal five years ago.
        Hope you can share your thoughts on this.

        Reply
        • I think you’ll be ok since you’re now on renewal. Your wife needs her NSO BC and MC too. To satisfy the DFA staff, bring old college ID, yearbook, Old employment ID or anything that has signature, photo, address and birthdate. DFA staffa are unpredictable

  393. Hi Madam Fhel!

    kelangan ko lang sana ng info’s/advice regarding expired passport. sobrang expired na passport. reading your blog seemed you could help me for some guidance. Yung passport ko kasi sobrang expired na and up until now hindi ko pa rin narerenew. Nagbabalak akong mag renew na sana ng passport kasi nabalitaan kong mapapasama ako sa isang tour papuntang US.

    may nag advice kasi sa akin na parang mahirap daw mag renew pag expired na ang passport.. honestly, hindi ko alam na may ganung rule pagdating sa passport. hindi ko rin kasi masyadong inintindi dati kasi hindi ko naman inaasahang magkakaron pala ako ng chansang makapunta ng Amerika.

    Ang tanong ko is paano and possible pa bang makapag renew ako ng passport? may idea ka po ba kung paano mag renew pag matagal nang expired ang passport? and requirements pag ganun?

    (naalala ko nakakuha ako ng passport nuon after graduating college at ang purpose ko plainly ay para reference sa pagtrabaho ko locally. ngayon woring na ako for some years)

    i hope you could help me regarding this matter.

    Maraming salamat!

  398. Sorry to ask, lagi kasing busy sa hotline ng DFA, kasi pag tinitignan ko yung requirements for passport renewal sa website ng DFA, may kasama pang atleast 3 supporting documents to prove identity daw (NBI clearance, Police clearance, etc.) Wala kasing nakasulat na “OR” dun sa list nila sa website nila eh. Hindi ba pwedeng ung NSO Birth Certificate nalang tsaka Gov’t issued IDs? Kasi hindi mo sya na mention sa list of requirements dito sa article mo. Thanks 🙂

    Reply
    • I mentioned the link of supporting docs above. DFA accept Government-issued IDs and you don’t need supporting docs anymore like NBI Clearance. Unless of course your IDs have inconsistency..On some case, applicant’s details don’t match on the IDs so DFA request supporting documents

Better for you to bring all your documents just to be sure. But in my case just valid id (serox)with old passport(serox).

    • You need a photocopy of your NSO BC and NSO MC if you’re female and married to renew passport. They asked those when I renewed mine. I submitted xerox copy of my NSO BC, SSS UMID card (back and forth) and old passport coz I’m single

Sept.26 appointment ko but my plane ticket ako on oct.4 nasusunod ba 7days rush processing nila for pick up para alam ko kailan paparebook thanks!

    • Your appointment is kinda close to your departure. If you follow the 7-day rush, expected release will fall on Oct. 8. Note that I did not count non-working days. I suggest you wait first for your passport before you book a flight

    • I suggest you wait for your passport released first before you book another flight because your appointment is so close to yur departure. Expected release of your passport is Oct.8 not counting non-working days

      • Hi.

        Is it possible to travel while the passport is still in the process of renewal? Im an ofw and iam only given 9days leave. Iam afraid that there will be some delay in releasing the passport..

        Thank you.

        • I think you can still use if it has at least 6 months validity and you didn’t yet claim the new one. The old one will not be valid anymore when it has been punched with holes

          Reply
      • Hi. I also need to renew my passport. My only question is IF DFA (the one in Pasay) is also the same as DFA Aseana? Because when I renewed last year 2009, I renewed at DFA Pasay (as I remember). If yes, then I need to have appointment also in DFA Aseana, right? no walk-ins?
        Thank you very much.

  450. Good Day just want to ask kung panu ko papa change po iyong birth year ko? Kasi nagkaroon pala ng double registration ang sabi sa munisipyo namin ng kumuha ako ng copy ng BC ko.

    Reply
    • Go to your Local Civil Registrar in your municipal office and make the necessary correction there. Then LCR will endorse the change in the NSO.

      Reply
      • Need ko rin po ba ng endorsement from NSO na may double registration nangyari? Wala kasing binigay any endorse from LCR kasi nakuha kong copy ng BC 1981 na (which sa una kong nakuha para sa new passport app is 1980 nakalagay). Sorry sa istorbo.

        Reply
          • Sa mag naunang kuha ko ng copy 1980 pero nitong huli kasi paregister sana ako sa comelec nagulat ako 1981 na kaya pumunta ako ng LCR sb double reg daw at un na lng daw sbhn ko pag renew ng passport 🙁

  451. Good day tanong ko lang po kung paano po magrenuew ang senior citizen ano po ang procedure at mga kailangan na valid id kailangan pa po ba namin mag pa appointment pa?

    Reply
    • Same requirements and procedure. Senior Citizens have special lane in every government office. It depends upon the DFA branch you are going. DFA Megamall, Aseana, SM Manila, Robinsons Galleria, Metro Alabang, and DFA Ali Mall requires appointment.

  452. I just got married this week and I want to use the surname of husband sa passport ko..tanung ko lang need pa ba na magdala ako ng id eh mga id ko kasi surname ko nung di pa ako kinasal..pero may passport na ako pero single pa status ko nun..panu un? Wala ako maipakita na id na gamit na ung surname ng husband ko.

    Reply
    • Bring your NSO Marriage Certificate and valid IDs. Yes, your IDs must use you new surname now. You need to update them first before you do the change of surname in your passport

      Reply
      • Hello!

        I want to use my hubby’s surname as well. I was just wondering if pwedeng magkaiba yung signatures ko sa passport ko now at sa ipapagawa kong bago. I am planning kasi to update my government records using a new signature. Yun nga lang, I am not quite sure if that’s possible.

        Thanks in advance!

        Reply
        • I think it’s valid since surname has been changed to married surname. Make sure all your docs and IDs use the same signature for consistency

    Reply
    • If it is ePassport (electronic Passport), you can use it as long as it’s valid. If it’s machine-readable, you must renew it before October this year. There is a memo about that from the DFA and International Aviation Authority

  455. Hi ma’am/sir

    How to get or apply the passport. Actually this my first and I don’t know get it. Pls can u teach me how to apply. Thanks

    • For first timers, the requirements are almost the same except for the copy of old passport. Bring photocopy and original copies of all requirements (listed in the article), application form, passport fee and go to the DFA personally to attend your appointment. If you dont need an appointment, just come there early. Please read the article above

  456. hi! thanks for all the info.

    Would you know if I can have my change of status done at satellite branches? (e.g. Ali mall branch)
    Or should this be done in the main office?

    Reply
    • Yes you can also change your civil status at any DFA branch (unless service became unavailable or announced unavailable) provided you bring the requirements plus your Marriage Certificate (original and photocopy)

    • I wonder how you got home without a passport? Try getting a new passport by applying for the purpose of Loss Passport. You need to show some documents though like Police Report and Affidavit of Loss in addition to the other requirements of the DFA

      • Hello may i ask if i can renew my passport it will be expired on november 1,2016 because maybe long time i will not go home here in the philippines

        Reply
      • My wife’s dad is gravely ill and we need to travel to the Philippines ASAP. Someone from the Philippine Consulate General in LA said I can travel to the Philippines with an expired passport as long as I get something called a “Travel Document”. This allows me a one-way pass to the Philippines. They said I can renew my passport when I get to the Philippines.

        My questions are:

        1. Do I need to have a Philippine government/establishment-issued ID? Since I haven’t been back to the Philippines (I’m a green card holder) in 20 years, I don’t have an ID that’s issued by the Philippine government to prove my identity. I have my expired green passport, my green card, and California driver’s license (I also have my Philippine birth certificate).

        2. Is there a risk that the expedited 7-day processing could go beyond 10 days? We’re only planning to stay in the Philippines for 10 days. I’m a bit concerned that I’ll miss my flight home.

        Thanks in advance for your reply!

        Reply
        • 1. I think they will accept your present US IDs since you have your old green passport and birth certificate already.
          2. Yes, the expedited 7-day rush processing may be delayed so you have to book your flight when your new passport is already in your hands. I suggest you renew in DFA Aseana or POEA
