Passport and Citizenship Applications
The Ministry facilitates passport and citizenship applications through Jamaican Embassies, High Commissions and consulates (overseas Missions), which transmit applications 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 when a person’s passport is expired, lost, stolen, damaged or otherwise unavailable. This is usually for one-way travel to Jamaica.
