Turin has introduced an online agenda for booking urgent passport appointments, ensuring smoother and more efficient processing for travelers with imminent travel needs. The new system allows individuals facing urgent travel situations, where regular appointment slots are unavailable, to access priority appointments.
How It Works:
- If regular appointment slots are not available for travel within 30 days, applicants can check the “Priority Appointments” section on the online agenda.
- The system displays availability for the next two weeks, enabling users to schedule an appointment if suitable slots are found.
- Upon booking, the system generates a self-certification form for urgency, which must be filled out, signed, and submitted along with supporting documentation at the time of the appointment.
Key Points:
- If no slots are available in the priority appointments section, applicants can access a “print urgency form” option to self-certify the need to travel within 15 days.
- The Passport Office at Piazza Cesare Augusto 5 operates from Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 1:30 pm, and from 2:30 pm to 6:30 pm.
- Users are encouraged to utilize the online agenda system to avoid unnecessary queues and are reminded to cancel appointments if their travel plans change.
The implementation of this online agenda aims to streamline the passport issuance process, especially for those with urgent travel requirements, ensuring timely and efficient service delivery.
