First, you need to get an appointment online, which you can do online at the BCR website. As mentioned on the page, you need to use one of the parents’ ID numbers to make the appointment.
Fill out the relevant fields (in my case, it was due to my son’s passport expiring) and choose which location you’d like for the appointment. If you’re in a rush, and willing to travel, you can choose different locations and choose whichever location has the earliest date available.
You will get an email confirming your appointment and reiterating the documents you’ll need to bring.
You’ll need to bring:
- A valid cedula (your own).
- Birth certificate.
- Expired passport.
Both parents need to be present at the appointment for the permiso de salida.
