  • FSC No. 214-99: Philippine passports that are reported as being held by another person as guarantee or collateral for loans/obligations are automatically cancelled upon notice from or by the holder of the said passport. The cancellation of the passport, therefore, renders it invalid for the purpose of guaranteeing payment of loans/obligations.
