Passport and Citizenship Applications & Notarial Services

Passport and Citizenship Applications

The Ministry facilitates applications for passport and citizenship applications through Jamaican Embassies, High Commissions and consulates (overseas Missions) which transmits them to the Passport, Immigration & Citizenship Agency (PICA) for processing. Through our Missions, persons may obtain an emergency travel document known as an Emergency Certificate to facilitate urgent travel in cases where a person’s passport is expired, lost, stolen, damaged or otherwise unavailable. This is usually for one-way travel to Jamaica.
