Philippine Passport - Physical Appearance

Physical Appearance

The latest Philippine passports have a maroon cover with the national coat-of-arms emblazoned in the centre. The cover has the Filipino words "PILIPINAS" above the arms and "PASAPORTE" under.

Passports issued during the latter years of the Fourth Republic had the order reversed (strikingly similar to the United States passport), with "PASAPORTE" on top and "REPUBLIKA NG PILIPINAS" on the bottom. All passports issued since this period have the cover in Filipino save for the SIRB, which has the cover text in English.

A typical passport has 44 (previously 32 or 64) pages.

Famous quotes containing the words physical and/or appearance:

    Self-esteem is as important to our well-being as legs are to a table. It is essential for physical and mental health and for happiness.
    Louise Hart (20th century)

    February is a suitable month for dying. Everything around is dead, the trees black and frozen so that the appearance of green shoots two months hence seems preposterous, the ground hard and cold, the snow dirty, the winter hateful, hanging on too long.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
