Palestinian Refugees from Syria Overburdened by Visa Renewal Fees

Thousands of Palestinians from Syria who have fled to other destinations have been unable to pay the steep fees of visa-renewal processes in the new destinations.

Renewing travel documents costs up to $300. The applicant is required to pay $800 if he/she expects to have travel documents renewed in a few days. In most cases, applicants receive a two-year renewal. 

Palestinian refugees also face difficulties trying to get in touch with Syrian consulates and embassies due to overcrowding. The situation is often made more complicated by the so-called “brokers of appointments” who have close ties with staff members at the consulate or the embassy. A meeting is sold by such parties at $300.

In order for Palestinians from Syria to obtain visas in new destinations, a valid travel document should be acquired to that end.
