In the Philippines, the passport was reissued but the travel permit was issued. What is the reason?

During living in the Philippines, there are two situations in which you need to go to the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines to reissue your passport. In these two situations, the passport is lost and the passport is valid. Many people reissue their travel permits when reissuing them. What is the reason? Friends who want to find out the reason should watch down!

Why did you issue a travel permit when you went to reissue your passport?

There are three situations in which the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines will issue a passport. The first situation is that the passport will be issued, the second situation is that the travel permit will be issued, and the third situation is that the return certificate will be issued. Then the travel permit is reissued because the Philippine visa you hold is short-term, and holding a short-term visa can only reissue the travel permit, which is clearly stipulated by the embassy.

If you go to the embassy to reissue your certificate because you lost your passport, you must issue a loss certificate. The loss certificate shall be handled at the Philippine police station. You need to provide the place and time of loss to the police station, and the police station will issue a loss certificate for you.

What is the difference between a travel permit and a passport?

A passport is an important document for a person overseas and a proof of a person's identity. With this document, you can enter and leave China and seek help from overseas embassies. The travel permit is a return certificate issued by the embassy when the passport is lost. This certificate is mainly used for return. This is the difference between a passport and a travel permit. The validity period of a passport is ten years, and the validity period of a travel permit is two years. Generally speaking, the validity period of a short-term visa in the Philippines will not exceed two years, and it is impossible to exceed two years including the renewable time. Therefore, the validity period of the travel permit can be used by short-term visa holders.
