PASSPORT RENEWALS:
Passport renewals can be done within 2-4 weeks, depending on the type of service requested. Courier pouches are usually sent every two weeks to Athens which gives Filipino citizens a chance to receive their newly issued passports within a reasonable amount of time.
Regular passport renewal (3-4 weeks) = CYP 60.00
Expedited passport renewal (1-2 weeks) = CYP 84.00
**Please note that the variance in cost is due to the courier charges to Athens and back.
For passport renewals please note that you will need to bring your original passport for reference, an extra ID and the following:
- Passport application (to be signed and stamped at the Honorary Consulate’s Office in person)
- 1 copy of the front page of your passport
- 1 copy of the back page of your passport
- 1 copy of an extra ID (Philippine ID, voting card, Temporary visa permit, etc. – as long as it has your name and picture on it)
- 3 passport photos with white background (please be sure they are new passport photos, not old ones)
- CYP 60.00 or CYP 84.00
Please note that due to the numerous requests for help in consular matters, the Honorary Consulate’s office is open by appointment only from 9am to 1:30pm. Please call for an appointment.
