I really appreciate for this piece of information.it has really helped me to prepare in advance before going there.the last time I went there I first bumped into someone calling himself as an agent and threatened me that the passport will take 3-4months before it can come out therefore he promised to give me the passport in 5days if I pay him k1500😂the other one demanded k2500 in 1 day🤣.at first I was desperate to have a passport because I needed one for me to apply for a scholarship abroad so I agreed and promised to return when I have money💰thank God have come across this video before I have done anything and guess what tomorrow am going to fill in the application form hoping twill be out by the end of December or first week January🙏
@ethel, yes you fill the forms right there and the interview is also done right there, its not a complicated process, just take a bit long for passport to come out
@collins, I guess you put the details of the deceased parent. But they interview you so you can state those details in the interview. But you can consult the passports office and they will help you
I'm just seeing this elo nishi i wNt a passport hope the prices have not changed that much and my question is what happens if u fail the interviews i have a friend who told i failed the passport interviews is it to start again the same process with the same fee or u pay again
@Isaac, I think you can leave it black. It's not extremely necessary, all have different levels of education. So if you haven't completed secondary education, it will still just go fine
@@mishikuu4833 no worries , I think it will go just well. Many people born in the 90's and early 2000's don't have including the author of this video but stil managed to get.
Hi Madalisto, you will be given a deposit slips specifically for the passport. Just ask the guard when u r there and they will walk you through the process.
@@madalitsombewe9948 even in Lusaka you pay using indo Zambia bank, the only advantage it's just near by the passports office. Hope that's the case even in Chipata
hey your video says Last year getting an ordinary Zambian passport costed 320...on the internet I've seen new prices reflecting saying obtaining a 32page passport 1.440 or 80$ ...How true could be that??
Hi Abraham, not sure of your source of information online but, if you are applying for a passport in Zambia usually the pricing is done in Kwacha and not in dollars. kindly clarify if you mean getting a passport within Zambia or applying for a Zambian passport when you are in another country?
Thanks, this is really helpful

So what if you want to travel to the US and it's not part of common wealth
@chisha, you will still need the passport but I think you will also need to get cleared and get a VISA
thanks
How long does it take passport to come out
@Veronica, they say it takes about 2 to 3 weeks. But my experience it took about 2 to 3 months.
Hey, I just came across your video and no lie it's really helpful.
But my worry is the fee for the stamp can you kindly approximate
@rose,not so sure, will update if I find out
@@ZambianLocalGuide then I want to get mine tomorrow, I don't have a birth certificate can I just go like that or maybe I need a police affidavit
What are the current prices now ?
@jelly, they should still be the same
Are the fees still the same for last year or are a bit adjusted?
@mischeck, they should still be the same
What if I don't have an NRC but have a valid passport which expires in two months
@chanda, in that case most likely you just have to renew it.
WHY am I Not getting my passport UpTo this Time since last year in December,I was told to wait for 21 days and yet this is now February
@Mwangwana, just keep checking, it will eventually come out
Very helpful video. Do you fill the forms right there and when is the interview conducted
@ethel, yes you fill the forms right there and the interview is also done right there, its not a complicated process, just take a bit long for passport to come out
@@ZambianLocalGuide thanks and is the photocopy NRC to be certified
Hey, could you make a "how to legally change your name in Zambia" video?
Hi Jay-
That sounds interesting!!!!
Will do some research on that topic and work on it.
Stay tuned!
@@ZambianLocalGuide Alright, cool
Do they check your height and eye color at the office? As in measure you?
@eldennis, not really. You just register it, so meaning you should know as you go
How many stamps from a commissioner are needed and roughly how much in total?
@muyaka, kindly shed more light on your question
@@ZambianLocalGuide the commissioners of oaths how much exactly should be set aside for that
What if you don't know your parent and the other one died
@collins, I guess you put the details of the deceased parent. But they interview you so you can state those details in the interview. But you can consult the passports office and they will help you
Useful
Glad you think so!
good job 👏
@glody. Thanks
@@ZambianLocalGuide u’re welcome now how does fake passports looks
What if one of your parents is late and you don't have access to the NRC?
@Asoche, Not very sure on that one, but I think you can explain to them and they will direct you on what to do
This was helpful, next video just use your voice naturally.
@Daniel, glad u liked it. Will put your suggestion into consideration
Do you thumb print to get your passport?
@nneka, not really..
Impressive
@ritamasiyedaka6869 You are welcome. Glad it was helpful

Why this take so long?
I'm just seeing this elo nishi i wNt a passport hope the prices have not changed that much and my question is what happens if u fail the interviews i have a friend who told i failed the passport interviews is it to start again the same process with the same fee or u pay again
@purity, they don't change the prices that often. And just prepare in advance to avoid failure
Hello there, does the passport costs changes?
@denise yes they do but they have not changed of late
What if you have not completed your secondary education, can you leave it blank or is it extremely necessary??
@Isaac, I think you can leave it black. It's not extremely necessary, all have different levels of education. So if you haven't completed secondary education, it will still just go fine
Is a birth certificate necessary to get a passport
Hi Mishikuu, not really. But original copy of NRC is necessary
@@ZambianLocalGuide Thank you, I was worried because I don't have a birth certificate
@@mishikuu4833 no worries , I think it will go just well. Many people born in the 90's and early 2000's don't have including the author of this video but stil managed to get.
@@ZambianLocalGuide Lol okay thanks
I too don't have a birth certificate
At the bank fo u pay using bill master or accountant
Hi Madalisto, you will be given a deposit slips specifically for the passport. Just ask the guard when u r there and they will walk you through the process.
Thank u .here in chipata am told that they use indo bank

@@ZambianLocalGuide thanks it's applying within Zambia..
@@-Mighty100 if it's within Zambia , then it's K320 but you can confirm at passports office. The 80$ then could be applying from other countries.
@@ZambianLocalGuide Thanks so very much.. appreciate 💖
ohhh sorry forgot to ask on the birth certificate..is it mandatory to carry it??
Do these prices still stand or its now changed
@ Paxina. Since this video was made this year @ 2021, the prices should still be the same
