The announcement was made in a statement issued on Monday by
the Deputy Comptroller General of Immigration, AB Yarima.
Yarima said that all new passports and renewals will be
suspended till 1st June 2021.
This, he said will give enough time to the commission to
clear all backlogs of applications before the commencement of new ones.
The statement in part reads: “The directive is to enable the
commission clear all backlogs of applications sequel to the commencement of new
passport regime on 1st June 2021.
“Consequently upon the foregoing, all PCOs are therefore
directed to utilise this period 17th May to 31st May to ensure that all
backlogs are produced and handed over to command comptrollers for collection by
members of the public.”
The command, therefore, advised the public to observe strict
compliance to the circular till further notice.
