Does anybody know where in Beijing can I have my Philippine passport added with visa pages? I am trying to call the Consular Section nos. above but always no answer.

Mr.Eli replied:

You are right that you can renew your passport at the Philippines Embassy in China. The Embassy's phone is always hard to get through, so I advise you go to the Embassy in person.

Ms.Lilian(China) replied:

Ms. Rose, I get the information from the official website of Consulate General of Philippines in Shanghai:
The Philippine Consulate General in Shanghai advises the public that starting Monday, 15 June 2009, it will accept and process applications for the Machine Readable Passports (MRPs).

Processing of MRP applications will take six (6) weeks. Applicants are, therefore, advised to submit their applications at least three (3) months before their scheduled travel, before the expiration of the Chinese visas, or before the expiration of their regular green passports, to avoid inconvenience. Applicants are also reminded that Philippine passports may be renewed six (6) months before the expiry date.

All regular green passports issued earlier will remain valid and will be honored by immigration authorities worldwide until the expiry date stated in their passports.

All applicants, whether those applying for a renewal of their passports or those applying for the first time, MUST APPEAR PERSONALLY at the Consular Section of the Philippine Consulate General to affix his thumb mark and sign his application form. Applications by mail will not be accepted.

Please observe the following procedure when applying for a Machine Readable Passport (MRP): please refer to http://www.philcongenshanghai.org/passport.htm

Dear Sir/Madam,

Nihao! I'd like to inquire about my passport situation. It'll expire APRIL 2010 but I still have a teaching contract 'till JUNE 2010 that's why the PSB just gave me a RESIDENCE VISA till DECEMBER 2009 but they will soon renew it,so the problem is "how will they give me a new RESIDENCE VISA 'till JUNE 2010 when my passport would have expired by then?"
Hoping for your reply regarding this very important matter. Thank you very much and blessings!

Respectfully yours,
Yingwen Laoshi

HI I am planning on making a trip to the PHilippines on October 18th and returning on the 25th. I am leaving from Beijing China, I am an American citizen. My passport expires on February 17th, 2010. Would I be able to get permission to travel to Manila during that time period. I would like to get permission from the Embassy before I go, so I will know that I can stay for sure during that time period. Thank you for your help

Oct. 8,2009 22:38
Ms.Lilian(China) replied:

National from USA are allowed visa-free entry to the Philippines for a period of 21 days or less

This visa-free privilege is allowed to holders of ordinary passports provided:
1. The validity of the passport is six (6) months from the date of departure to the Philippines; AND
2. Possession of a plane ticket for an onward destination.

your passport has only 4 months validity left before expiration, so you can't go to Philippines

Mr.Rong replied:

No passport? How can she enter China without passport? Or her passport is detained by her employer?

Oct. 8,2009 03:46
Ms.Baileu(PH) replied:

I was in the similar situation as your sister-in-law many years ago. Even the police could not do anything to get my passport from my employer. But he gave me a suggestion. That was to report to the police dept. that my passport was lost (then give any reason and date). The police dept. will give your sister-in-law the affidavit of loss passport. She has to use this to apply for a travel document at the philippine embassy. This travel document will serve as her passport to get out of China. She can only apply for a new pasport in the Philippines. But before she can leave the country, she will have to pay penalty (for overstaying in the country) and income tax. The penalty will be set by the foreign affairs or police dept. in the place where your sister-in-law has been living. She also has to pay for income tax. It will be calculated based on time she have been staying in China at a designated rate and estimated amount. After she has paid the penalty and income tax, she can get a clearance for exit (from china)from the foreign affairs or police dept. In my case I just surrendered myself to the police dept. I wanted to go home bu didn't know how obtain the different documents required so the policemen guided me in processing the documents I needed. During those times I stayed somewhere else.
