Document background
The Authorization Letter to Claim Passport DFA is an essential document required when an individual cannot personally collect their passport from Singapore's authorities. This document is commonly used during passport renewal or issuance processes when the passport holder is unable to appear in person due to various circumstances such as illness, work commitments, or being overseas. The letter must include specific details as mandated by Singapore's Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA), including the authorizer's and authorized person's full identification details, clear authorization statement, and validity period. Supporting documents such as identification copies must typically accompany this authorization.
