The Ministry of Finance has taken decisive steps to address the current backlog of passports by releasing necessary funds.
Reports from sources quoting Passport Office insiders indicate that international tenders have been issued for the procurement of printing machines and e-passport equipment, alongside advertisements for lamination papers used in the printing process.
