Does the Philippine Consulate General in Shanghai need to make an appointment for a visa?

A: Yes, starting from January 9, 2023, you need to make an appointment in advance to apply for a visa at the Consulate General of the Republic of the Philippines in Shanghai. If you don't make an appointment in advance, no one will accept it even if you go. Moreover, the number of places reserved every day is limited. Except for weekends and holidays, the consulate will accept 100 visa places every working day from 9:30 a. m. to 11:30 a. m. The quota is signed on a first-come-first-served basis. In addition, when making an appointment, two dates cannot be reserved at the same time. Repeated reservation will result in invalid reservation.
