Obtaining CNI during the MANILA Floods and embassy closed

[MissDi]

Are you sure about that MissDi ??
Have you actually done that ??

Security level at the British Embassy is very high.

To Lovemanila,
What is the date of your Philippine wedding ?
Working back from that date you'll discover the latest date for Philippine CNI
To save additional time your fiancee can collect it from the Embassy provided she has the correct documentations and ID's etc.
Also an appointment slot.

If you have difficulties with the availability of apponiment slots and wish to be treated as an urgent case then you MUST first contact the Consular team at Cons.Manila@fco.gov.uk

DO NOT just turn up at the embassy unexpected. You will not normally be allowed to enter. Period.

not me Terpe. my husband did, about 2 yrs ago, we went to embassy together. and yes the security level is high.

normally, they honor the first appointment date. then resched u if need be. so no need to make another appointment Lovemanila unless uve been there and personally talked to them on the appoinyment date they expected u to come.

As I've mentioned, Lovemanila is best advised not to believe that anyone can just walk into the Embassy and receive service without prior agreement. Those days are long gone.
The current systems are completely different.

Lovemanila should contact the Embassy for next step options if there are insufficient appointment slots for a timely issue of a local CNI

YES I will second that.I tried it but alas got turned away.There was a time you could walk in to a British Embassy at any time during opening hours as I did often do that when I lived in Moscow but that has all been done away with and I did try to go to the Embassy in Manila to query a document,I did not have an appointment and was duly turned away.
