The Department of Immigration and Emigration has announced that the issuance of passports and visas has now resumed after a temporary suspension caused by a technical issue in its system.

The Department clarified that services were temporarily halted due to technical difficulties affecting the processing of passport and visa applications. The issue has now been resolved, and normal operations have been restored.

Applicants are advised to contact the Department or visit their official website for further updates and to complete any pending applications.
