Palestinian refugees from Syria continue to denounce the complicated red tape faced by Palestinians from Syria (PRS) who have applied for Palestinian Authority-stamped passports.
Scores of PRS have submitted appeals for PA passports since last July at the Palestinian embassy in Damascus.
According to an official embassy source, most passport demands submitted by August 15, 2021 have been handed over to the applicants.
Palestinian refugees who applied for passports in the first half of last August should reach out to the embassy to verify passport issuance.
Delays in passport issuance have been attributed to difficulties in transferring documents from Ramallah to Syria through Jordan. Only 30 passports can be transferred at once.
The embassy source added that over recent months demands for PA passports through the website have doubled. Several documents and photos were rejected by the embassy due their poor quality.
