Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring photo to DFA?
No, DFA captures your photo on-site during your passport appointment. This ensures the photo meets biometric standards. You don't need to bring passport photos for DFA applications.
Can I smile in Philippine passport photo?
No, maintain a neutral expression with your mouth closed. The DFA staff will guide you on proper positioning and expression during photo capture.
What if my appointment slot is not available?
DFA releases appointment slots regularly. Check passport.gov.ph frequently, especially early morning or midnight when new slots are released. Some satellite offices have more availability than main offices.
