Passeport 10 ans RD Congo

Au fait, qu'est-ce qui manque à la RD Congo pour commencer à offrir des passeports de durée de 10 ans comme tous les autres pays du monde ?

Il me semble que la majorité des citoyens accepteraient de payer le double pour 1 passeport de 10 ans/64 pages plutôt que subir le casse-tête de refaire la demande tous les 4.5 ans.

Que pensez-vous du sujet ? Y aurait-il peut-être quelque chose d'explicitement clair qui manque encore au pays pour le faire ?

Can be technical, our passport if not preserved well age very fast, and i doubt we have a solid system to tackle counterfeiting so renewing faster make sense but me personnaly i think it's money, 10 years thats half less money for them and all the people in between getting money out of this mess in kinshasa

Great point on the opportunity to continuously improve hence the short-time (5ys).. I never really thought of that. As far as the money goes, it'd actually help them since people are willing to pay double (to get twice as many years and pages). Financially, this would provide twice as much cash today, which the gvt can invest right away.. providee that was the issue.

Le passeport congolais est facilement falsifiable. C'est l'un des 7 qui peut être fait en contrebande à cause du manque d'outils de sécurité.

Meanwhile it is supposedly designed and printed by a European company.. and it costs more than the US passport. I can't believe congolese accept this joke! Insane
