Philippine Consulate Osaka: Fees, Hours and Address
Department of Foreign Affairs · consular
Quick answer
The Philippine Consulate General in Osaka is at Twin 21 MID Tower 24F, Chuo-ku, open 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. A passport is ¥9,000 and most civil registry work ¥3,750. Authentication is taken mornings only, 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, and marriages are solemnised Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 2:30 pm.
Osaka charges the same yen figures as the Embassy in Tokyo, which is what you would expect from a national schedule. Where it differs is in when it will take your document, and in a set of translation fees that only a post in Japan needs.

Passport fees
| Service | Fee |
|---|---|
| New passport, and renewal of a passport | ¥9,000 |
| Replacement of a lost or mutilated e-passport | ¥22,500 |
| Replacement of a lost or mutilated MRP or green passport | ¥13,500 |
| Affidavits | ¥3,750 |
| Self-addressed Red Letter Pack Plus from Japan Post, supplied by applicant | ¥600 |
Losing an e-passport is ¥26,250 once the ¥3,750 affidavit is added, against ¥9,000 for a renewal, a multiple of 2.92. The older MRP or green passport is ¥17,250 all in.
These are the same figures the Embassy in Tokyo publishes on its schedule under Department Order 07-00, so the choice between the two posts is about jurisdiction and travel, not price. Requirement checklists are in the passport renewal in Japan guide, and the northern post in the Philippine Embassy Tokyo guide.
Civil registry fees, including translation
| Report of Birth | Fee |
|---|---|
| Report of Birth | ¥3,750 |
| Translation of the Shusei Todoke Kisai Jiko Shomeisho | ¥3,750 |
| Affidavit of Delayed Registration | ¥3,750 |
| Certified True Copy | ¥3,750 |
| Expedited services | ¥1,500 |
| Report of Marriage | Fee |
|---|---|
| Report of Marriage | ¥3,750 |
| Translation of the Konin Todoke no Kisai Jiko Shomeisho | ¥3,750 |
| Translation of the Kosekitohon of the spouse | ¥3,750 |
| Affidavit of Delayed Registration | ¥3,750 |
| Certified True Copy | ¥3,750 |
The translations are the Japan-specific cost, and they stack. A Report of Marriage that needs both the marriage record and the spouse’s Kosekitohon translated is ¥11,250 before any affidavit or certified copy, where the report alone is ¥3,750, a multiple of 3. A delayed Report of Marriage needing both translations, the delayed-registration affidavit and a certified copy reaches ¥18,750.
Registering the Philippine-side record afterwards is covered in the PSA marriage certificate guide.
Marriage fees
| Service | Fee |
|---|---|
| Marriage license, for two | ¥7,500 |
| Affidavit of Civil Status, for two | ¥7,500 |
| Affidavit of Parental Consent or Parental Advice | ¥3,750 |
| Solemnization of Marriage | ¥9,000 |
| Report of Marriage | ¥3,750 |
Two of these are priced per couple rather than per person, which the Consulate marks explicitly as “for two”. A couple marrying at the Consulate without needing parental consent pays ¥7,500 for the licence, ¥7,500 for the affidavits of civil status, ¥9,000 to solemnise and ¥3,750 to report it, or ¥27,750 in total.
Authentication
¥3,750 per set and type of document, plus ¥1,500 per set and type for the express service. The phrase “per set and type” is doing real work: two different types of document are two charges, not one, however few pages each runs to.
Authentication for use in the Philippines and the separate apostille route are covered in the apostille and red ribbon guide.
What this page does not cover
Osaka publishes no processing times for any service, only the ¥1,500 expedite fee that implies one exists. It publishes no fee for NBI clearance or dual citizenship on the pages read here, and does not state its consular jurisdiction in prefecture terms, so this page does not say which prefectures belong to Osaka rather than to Tokyo or Nagoya. The Consulate’s contact page also lists an emergency telephone number that did not render completely when read on 2026-09-02, so it is not printed here.
