The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a statement advising passport applicants to contact them in the case of an emergency. This directive aims to streamline communication and provide prompt assistance to those in urgent need. While the Ministry acknowledges that the current passport application process may cause frustration and inconvenience, they emphasize the importance of reserving direct communication for emergencies only. Applicants are urged to follow the regular channels and procedures for passport inquiries and updates. For non-emergency concerns or general inquiries about passport applications, applicants are encouraged to refer to the Ministry’s website or contact their local passport office for assistance. The Ministry assures the public that they are working diligently to address passport processing delays and enhance the overall application experience. This advisory comes as an effort to alleviate the Ministry’s overwhelmed communication channels due to the unprecedented number of passport applications and disruptions caused by the ongoing pandemic. By prioritizing emergency cases and essential services, the Ministry aims to provide more focused and efficient support where it is most urgently needed. Applicants are advised to exercise discretion when contacting the Ministry for emergency situations, ensuring that their cases genuinely require immediate attention. By doing so, the Ministry can better allocate its resources and staff towards addressing critical issues promptly. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urges passport applicants to contact them only in the event of an emergency. Non-emergency concerns should be addressed through regular channels or local passport offices. The Ministry apologizes for any inconvenience caused by the current delays in passport processing and assures applicants of their commitment to resolving these issues as quickly as possible.
