This is something really out of the ordinary.
Imagine renewing your passport in just 15 minutes. Twilight zone huh!
Well I did it.
But prior to that, you have to make sure you made the appointment online.
You fill out the forms and print it and bring it with you on the time of the scheduled date.
I chose Robinsons Galleria because I heard from a friend that they have short queues. When I went there, there was none except for the line I think for the OFWs.
My appointment was at 11:30am but they already let me in at 11am.
First, the receptionist will verify your appointment schedule.
Then, you will be given a number to what window you'll start.
This is the window where they will check your documents.
I had some discrepancy on my marriage certificate so I had to amend it.
Good thing, you can do it right inside tha DFA.
You just have to pay the corresponding fee.
Mine is P200.
After that you submit the amendment and then you go to encoding and picture taking.
They will let you check the entry on the computer before they finalize it.
Then off you go to the courier booth.
Either you go back to pick it up or you pay to deliver it to your place.
That's it. Done in 15 minutes.
