The department did not elaborate.
It said affected applicants with confirmed appointments who are unable to avail of consular services must secure another appointment by emailing the consular office at cotabato.rco@dfa.gov.ph.
The email should contain the following information:

The department said applicants that require emergency or urgent consular services may contact the consular office as well.
“The DFA requests the public’s understanding and cooperation,” the department said.
