202 1 passport processing

The application process of conditional passport application area is basically similar to that of on-demand passport application area. The difference is that before submitting the application form, it is necessary to conduct a political review at the police station where the household registration belongs, or the company where the applicant works has the right of political review, and the application form can only be submitted after the political review is passed. Police stations in some of these areas also require applicants to apply for innocence certificates before requesting political review. Therefore, the applicant needs to submit the household registration book, the original and photocopy of the ID card, the application form for passport, and sometimes the certificate issued by the work unit or company. Therefore, the time for political review is increased in the whole passport application process, and the processing time for submitting a passport application form to the local exit-entry administration department to get a passport is also longer than that in the region where the passport is applied as needed.
