Passport Renewal

rockieArockieA Posts: 1Member

Hello po!

I'm currently here in AU po and planning to go home in PH next month for the holidays. Ma-eexpire na po ang passport ko sa January 2022. Makakapag-travel pa rin po ba ako sa Pilipinas at doon magrenew ng passport kahit less than 6 months nalang po ang validity nito?

Alternatively, maaari ko po bang simulan ang renewal process dito sa Sydney, umuwi ng Pinas gamit ang current passport, at doon hintayin ang new passport?

Maraming salamat po!

    should be no problem

    Seems unlikely... better call/visit the consulate if this is possible.

    Maraming salamat po!

    In my experience, traveling with an expiring passport is not an issue. When I was flying out to Manila from Taiwan with one month validity left on my passport, I simply told the Taiwan immigration officer that I was flying to Manila to renew my passport. But that was years ago, when getting an online appointment in Manila was relatively easy. Balita ko mahirap makakuha ng online appointment in Manila nowadays, so you will have to confirm this before flying out.

    As with starting the renewal process in Sydney, as Cucci said, confirm with consulate. I just don't remember if the old passport will be cancelled on the day you apply for renewal, or pag irerelease na yung bagong passport. When I renewed my passport in Sydney, it took about 6 weeks (in 2019, pre-pandemic pa). Confirm with consulate how long it takes to get the new passport, or if possible na sa Manila mo siya i-pick up.
