OFW PASSPORT RENEWAL AT DFA ORTIGAS, FASTER PROCESSING AND PROBABLY RELEASING IF YOU COME EARLY?




In one of the satellite offices of the Dept of Foreign Affairs or DFA, you can now process your passport renewal if you are an OFW or overseas Filipino workers, IN ONE DAY. Is it TRUE?

In DFA at Robinson's Galleria in Pasig, right in front of the POEA Building, if you arrive between 8AM to 12Noon, you can be assured that your passport will be released the same day according to DFA. But we cannot verify if this is true as of the moment since many OFWs who went home for vacation especially this December 2016 were dismayed because they were not able to renew their passport and get it in one day. 

According to some who processed their passport, this can be availed by the first 100 person/OFW/Senior Citizen/PWD to renew during the day. 

Here is the map of the Robinson's Galleria.

DFA OFFICE ADDRESS is
Department of Foreign Affair (DFA)

L1 Robinsons Galleria , EDSA Cor. Ortigas Avenue, San Antonio , Ugong Norte , 1605 Pasig City , Metro Manila, Ortigas Center, Quezon City, Metro Manila

Famous landmark of the area is the Edsa Chapel and the Edsa Shrine.
