Report the loss of your Philippine passport to the police. Give details of the loss, theft or robbery. Get the police report and affidavit.
Get photos of yourself that meet Philippine passport requirements. The pictures must be of professional quality, measuring 3.5 cm x 4.5 cm, with a royal blue background and no older than 6 months. Wear decent attire.
Obtain one original and one copy of your birth certificate certified by the National Statistics Office and printed on security paper (SECPA). You can get NSO-certified birth certificates from the eCensus website, whether you are in the country or abroad.
Prepare valid identification. Show evidence of your identity and residence, such as a driver's license, student ID, voter ID, NBI clearance or land title. You may also need to show additional proof of your Filipino citizenship such as a marriage certificate and school records. These must be originals.
Visit the Philippine embassy or consulate if you are overseas, or the Department of Foreign Affairs if you are in the country. Go to the Consular Office. Present your application form, filing fee and supporting documents. Have your thumb prints and signature taken. Execute a notarized affidavit relating how you lost your passport.
Confirm the information you give. A consular officer will attempt to determine if you really lost your Philippine passport or not. If he or she is convinced that your report is genuine, your application for a replacement passport will be processed. The Philippine embassy will need permission from the DFA before it can issue you the replacement.
Get your replacement passport. You can claim it in person on the day it becomes available, or you can wait for it in the mail. To have your passport mailed to you, you can pay for delivery after you file your application at the DFA, or bring a self-addressed stamped envelope with your application to the embassy or consulate.
