Update (March 30, 2008): Online passport processing is now available for first time applicants, please read this post for details: Apply for New Philippine Passport Online
At last, renewing and applying for a passport in the Philippines is now much easier. Passport application through the DFA Passport Appointment System by Internet is now available for Filipinos.Through this online passport application system, people who want to file passport applications can set an appointment with the DFA via the internet instead of waking up very early to be able to transact for their passport in the DFA offices or pay for more when availing the help of travel agencies.
The DFA Passport Appointment System is initially available for
- those whose passports have already expired;
- those whose passport will be expiring within the next one year; and
- senior citizens
The DFA appointment system will reportedly be available to all passport applicants in the future.
Passport applicants can apply for an appointment by sending a request to appointment@dfa.go.ph with the following details:
• Full name (first name, middle name and surname);
• Date of birth;
• Place of birth;
• Latest Passport Number and Date of Issuance
Passport applicants will then be sent a reference number and a confirmation which will include details of designated date and time for the filing of the passport application at the DFA-Passport Office.

Hi Rhodilee!
It’s fascinating that you can answer their questions even if you dont work for DFA Ü Anyway, I was browsing the questions above because I don’t want to post the same question but I believe you did not answer Seneth’s query:
“I’m planning to get a foreign visa and i just wanna know if i need to renew/change my old green passport to the new brown passport or can i still use it? Can i renew it eventhough the expiration is 2011?”
I have the same question kasi hehehe and it’s coincidental naman that we both have the same expiration year. I hope you could help! Thanks!

Please inquire from any travel agency or DFA they might help you with your concern.

Hindi lahat ng passport application ay maa aprub regardless online ka mag apply o pipila ka sa DFA. I think no worries naman kung ma comply mo naman ang requirements. I read some forum and it seems passport.com.ph is okay naman here it is for reference http://www.tipidpc.com/viewtopic.php?tid=151442 but if you are doubtful, you can just have your passport processed sa agency or direct sa dfa.

ok. gusto kc namin ng friend ko mag-apply ng passport.. first time namin to, then nabasa ko po yung ni-rerefer nyong online application. ask ko lang po if ok po ba tlga dun? kc bigla kaming nag-dalawang isip nung nabasa namin yung nakasulat na “Approval for passports applied online is not guaranteed as this still depends on the discretion of the DFA.”
bago lang po ba sila or naka-ilang years narin?
and P1,300 lang po ba tlga magagastos namin all in all or may ibang expenses pa po? thanks po. i hope matulungan nyo po kami at ma-advice-san.. thanks. =)
