Amendment of passport details at the Philippine Embassy shall be strictly by appointment only. Please book an appointment through this link : https://philippineembassysgpassport.timetap.com/
The change of name (due to adoption, marriage, dissolution of marriage, widowhood) on the passport requires renewal of the passport. The change of name cannot anymore be manually written on the passport, as immigration authorities of many countries do not anymore recognize manually-entered amendments on the passport.
Any change on the personal details on your passport will require the provision of a proper personal identity or civil status documents as evidence and basis for the change.
The Embassy will accept only Philippine identity or civil status documents that are PSA or NSO-issued (printed on security paper) and authenticated (or Apostillized) by the Department of Foreign Affairs. The information on the DFA authentication procedure is published on the DFA website at this link. https://consular.dfa.gov.ph/authentication. Singapore identity papers must be issued by either the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority or the Registry of Marriages.
The Embassy will not amend any Philippine passport issued prior to 01 January 2015 (including the non-machine readable brown or green passports).
