Renewing Your Philippine Passport in Vancouver

More Canada Updates

The process and requirements of Philippine Passport renewal abroad varies from one country to another. Therefore, it is important to browse through the steps on how to renew a Philippine Passport through the online site of the Philippine consulate at one’s location.

Furthermore, it is also important to know which locations are served by which Philippine Consulate. For instance, the Philippine Consulate General in Vancouver serves only those residing within Northwest Territories, Alberta, British Columbia, and Yukon. That means unless you come from these Canadian provinces, or any location outside the jurisdiction of a Philippine consulate or embassy, you may be advised to proceed to an appropriate consular post unless in exceptional situations.
