24 February, Phnom Penh - On 16 February 2020, the Philippine Embassy in Phnom Penh conducted a mobile consular outreach in Borey Phipop Thmey in conjunction with the SAMAPI Family Day 2020. A total of 83 Filipinos were served with 68 consular services rendered during the outreach mission.

A district in Phnom Penh known for its booming real estate projects and garment industries, Borey Phipop Thmey is 7.2 kilometers from the city center. It is home to many Filipinos working in garment factories

The Embassy offered the following services: Embassy I.D. issuance and renewal; passport renewal and passport extensions; civil registry (Report of Birth and Report of Marriage); OV registration; and notarial services (e.g. acknowledgment of employment contract, affidavit of invitation, etc.).

Filipinos who availed themselves of the consular services expressed their appreciation to the Embassy for the mobile outreach as they do not need to take a day off for consular services. In addition, they do not have to travel far for the services they need. END
