I appreciated the experience at the Embassy today as I renewed my passport. They were all very efficient, polite, and fast! The building was very comfortable and not intimidating. Best government agency so far imo 😁 Someone working from the Philippine Embassy (1600) went out of his way to go out and inform me as we were passing by that the consular office is across the street. He was so friendly and accommodating; and he willingly answered some questions I had. It made me feel so comfortable and not nervous anymore!

I DON'T KNOW WHEN WILL THEY ANSWER MY REQUEST TO GET MY SCHEDULE FOR DUAL CITIZENSHIP!

Joey is the best! From email correspondence to actually taking care of my dual citizenship process, he was consistently helpful and courteous. Instructions were clear. The only downside is the scheduling process as it was truly difficult because you have to time it, and wait for any schedule to be available. I made my appointment about 3 months ago. I got a confirmation number of my appointment via text message. This same number texted me a day prior to my appointment to remind me of my dual citizenship and oath taking schedules. You have to go to 1617 Massachusetts address for dual citizenship and passport renewal. My appointment was 9:45 but I arrived early and was allowed to come in around 9:20. Once inside, you have to sign in. No need for temperature checks, but you need to wear a face mask at all times. I submitted all the required documents for the dual citizenship and passport renewal application. The process is smooth as long as you have complete documents. I was done in about 15 minutes. My oath taking started around 1:30 pm (not 3pm). The restrooms are clean. The temperature was warm - inside the building where you take the oath of allegiance to the RP. So, you can take a manual fan for your comfort. All the staff members were polite and helpful. Kudos to the staff!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Good luck getting an answer from Embassy employees when you call their phone lines! They don't seem to the have the time to answer their phones or do they have any compunction to respond to voice messages left for them. The INCOMPETENCE of people working in the embassy is alarming and extremely irritating!

Appointment is better to avoid the long wait. Even with an appointment, you still wait for an hour. Make sure to get the priority envelope ahead of time at the post office with a stamp, so that they can send your passport back. And bring $60.10 in cash for the passport fee.

My husband is in the US now.He is a US citizen, he is married to me (filipina)and we have a minor children,Is he allowed to get a Visa to come in In the philippines???

Joedecar Marek | Oct 1, 2021
Leon Lewis | Oct 1, 2021

Is the child a Filipino as well? Dual citizen or Filipino citizen (child) can be accompanied by a US Citizen adult and be granted a visa. If the child is only a US Citizen, both the child and US Citizen parent will not be granted a Visa until the travel ban is lifted. Furthermore, the child must be travelling with the adult. If the US citizen adult is the sole traveler on the flight itinerary, no visa will be granted.

Is there a need to acquire a visa to the Philippines? I am a naturalized american citizen with dual citizenship as filipino.

Republic Act 9225 otherwise known as the Citizenship Retention and Reacquisition Act of 2003 (more popularly known as the Dual Citizenship Law) enables former natural-born Filipinos who have become naturalized citizens of another country to retain/reacquire their Philippine citizenship by taking an oath of allegiance to the Republic of the Philippines before a Philippine Consular Officer. Upon retaining or reacquiring their Philippine citizenship, they shall enjoy full civil, economic and political rights as Filipinos.

Anilin Alag | Oct 1, 2021
Cecil Jacobs | Oct 1, 2021

The ONLY way is to make an appointment. As the site explains, the appointments are made available on a rolling 30-day window. You need to get out your calendar and count 30 days ahead. If the date is a weekend or a holiday for the Philippine Embassy, there will be no appointments offered in the tegistration site that day. The first appointment offered each day is at 9am ET. That means you must have your information filled out in the registration form and ready click the button to request the appointment right at 9am. Thereafter, apointment alots are every 10 minutes. If you didn't get the 9am slot, make sure you're ready to try again at 9:10, then 9:20; then 9:30, and so on. Be absolutely certain your e-mail address and your mobile phone number are correct on the form! My wife and daughter managed to secure consecutive appointments at 9:10 and 9:20 using the method I have just explained. The key is to have it ready to submit a little early, then keep clicking to retry.

My friend is a US Citizen and his mom is very ill. He wants to go and visit her in the Philippines. Can he travel to the Philippines? What are the documents that he needs to bring in order for him to enter the Philippines?

Madeleine Clements | Oct 1, 2021
Dexter Valdehuesa | Oct 1, 2021

With the ever changing travel policies/restrictions, best bet is to just call the consular office. I just looked up https://ph.usembassy.gov/covid-19-information/ and it was updated last week. It looks like if a US citizen travels with a Filipino citizen that is either a parent, child, or spouse, they can be allowed to enter the PI, as long as they have a visa as supposed to without a visa like what we did last December, I traveled with my wife (Filipino citizen). Also, by calling them, he'd have a realtime answers on his inquiries, especially in an emergency situation like he's in. Since I'm not time constricted, I personally applied for a dual citizenship, so we really don't have to scramble for a visa if we have to come back to the PI for i.e. emergencies.

Valid passport and probably a negative covd test within 72 hours of travel. Bring green card if you have em, otherwise, you'd need some sort of visa to enter back to the states. Don't take my word for it though, make sure do your own research. I don't know anything about your situation. This is just a general answer.

Maria Ofemia | Oct 1, 2021
Ed Gatbonton | Oct 1, 2021

Here's the link for the requirements. https://philippineembassy-usa.org/e-passport-renewal/ I just renewed mine on Nov 23, 2020. You need to set an appointment online 30 days in advance. Example: Today is Nov. 30, 2020, the available appointment will be December 30, 2020.. Tip: the appointment system will start showing the available slot starting at 9am and will continue showing one slot for every 10 minutes until 12pm and will resume at 1pm until 3pm. Monday to Friday only. So if the 30th day from the time you visit the website falls on weekend, then there will be no appointment will be shown on the website. Also the renewal of passport is in the consulate building right across the embassy. Here is the address. 1617 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, DC 20036
