Dfa Slots Cebu
Early of 2017, slots for passport appointment are closing one by one much to the frustration of many applicants. This did not change by the start of 2018 where an increase of over 100k slots was added but still, this addition did not cater every past applicant and even the new ones.
The DFA discourages applicants from securing online appointment through fixers and social media accounts. Please be warned that engaging such services is at your own risk and expense. If you wish to reschedule, do not cancel your appointment. Please go back and select 'Manage Existing Appointment'. Please note that cancelled appointments can no. Personally, I would rather travel somewhere else and spend a day in order to secure my passport before my trip than wait to get a slot in Metro Manila DFA branches. And as a traveller, it is not bad to visit a city or a province that you might not have considered before. THE Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) deployed passport mega vans in Cebu to address the massive demand for passport appointment slots in the province. Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr. Sent two mega vans as part of DFA’s Passport on Wheels (POW) mobile outreach service in Cebu. The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) is at the Pacific Mall (also sometimes known as Metro Mandaue) in Mandaue City, Cebu. DFA Cebu is open from Monday to Friday 9 AM-6 PM and Saturday 9 AM-3 PM. If you have questions, you can call them at (032) 520-5898 and (032) 520-6193. You may also contact them via email at cebu.rco@dfa.gov.ph.

UPDATE: How to renew your PASSPORT online.
Due to the increasing backlog, many Filipino are cursing the incompetence of the Department of Foreign Affairs or DFA in opening more slots to cater all those who wants to apply or renew their passport. The passport appointment system was controversial in January of 2018 due to the slots being fully booked until March of the same year causing many workers and travelers so much inconvenience.
