The Philippine Consulate General in Calgary will launch a new passport Online Appointment System (OAS) on 25 October 2020 for passport bookings from 23 November 2020 onwards.
The new OAS can be found at www.passport.gov.ph. It is the same system that the Department of Foreign Affairs in Manila uses in scheduling passport appointments in the Philippines.
In the new OAS, applicants will have to encode their complete information before confirming their booking. Applicants will receive confirmation email with an auto-generated application form containing their personal details and a barcode unique to each applicant.
Applicants are required to bring the printed application form (with barcode) on the date and time of their appointment, along with the supporting documents, such as old passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate, certificates of retention/re-acquisition of Philippine citizenship, work permit, and permanent residency card. The supporting documents will depend on whether the applicant is an adult or a minor, and if the applicant is renewing or applying for a passport for the first time. These requirements are found at www.philcongencalgary.org.
The new OAS is free of charge and clients only need to pay for passport renewal fee when they arrive at the PCG on their appointment date.
“With the Philippine Consulate General’s new passport online appointment system, we will be able to process passport applications quicker than before, which we hope our passport applicants will find more convenient” Consul General Zaldy Patron said about the Philippine Consulate General’s new OAS.
Passport bookings for 20 November 2020 and earlier can still be made using the Philippine Consulate General’s existing Appointment Plus OAS which can be accessed from this link https://booknow.appointment-plus.com/ykdcgsge. This site will close on 21 November 2020.
