"The team encoded 285 e-passport applications, processed 15 notarial papers and 3 extensions of passports," the embassy said in a news release.
Philippine Ambassador to Saudi Arabia Ezzedin Tago extended his appreciation to the community leaders and volunteers in the eastern region who helped in the outreach mission.
Meanwhile, the embassy said its next "Embassy on Wheels" outreach will be in Al-Khobar, Eastern Region on Aug. 29 and 30 at the Al Jazeera International School Dammam in Al Rakah, Al Khobar.
It said applicants for renewal shouldd schedule an appointment for the renewal of their passport through the Embassy’s website www.philembassy riyadh.org.

As for those who need replacements for lost passports or new passports for infants, they do not need an appointment and may proceed directly to the counter to accomplish the supporting documents for a passport. - VVP, GMA News
