Applying or Renewing for Passport? Check the Valid ID's Accepted by DFA

Whether you are planning to work or travel abroad, a valid Philippine passport is one of the most important things you must have because, without it, you can't leave the country.

Applying for a Philippine passport is now easy with more online appointment slots available and a simplified process. In fact, you can apply for passport hassle-free if you study the process first and complete the requirements needed before proceeding to the Department of Foreign Affairs.

One of the most important requirements in the process is a valid identification card or ID. But remember that not all valid IDs are accepted in the DFA.

Who Can Skip Online Appointment And Use The DFA Courtesy Lane For Passport Processing?

Filipinos who want to apply for a passport or renew their passports can do it online by making an appointment.

Since walk-ins applicants are no longer allowed, the first step is to go to www.passport.gov.ph to secure a slot for an appointment schedule. The website is on a first-come, first-serve basis and tends to be already fully booked for several months back. This is why booking for a slot would allow you to be in two months ahead of the application. Overseas Filipino workers (OFW) are among the list of those who can apply for passport renewal without an appointment through the DFA Consular Office Courtesy Lane.
