DFA Passport Appointment Online: Help and Guides
Quick answer
You book a Philippine passport appointment on passport.gov.ph, the DFA site. You pick a consular office, date and time, fill in your details, and pay the fee online or through a payment partner. There is no member account or password: you confirm by email. A regular passport costs PHP 950 and expedited PHP 1,200 in 2026.
Before you start
- An email you can open now. The confirmation link goes there.
- Your PSA birth certificate details (new applicants) or your old passport (renewal).
- A valid ID.
- A payment method listed on the site.
Appointments are free to book. You only pay the passport fee. Never pay a fixer for a slot.
