A friend has had a request from a part time employee to help with the cost to renew their Haitian passport. He was concerned about the cost and I offered to ask here in case someone knew this information. He was told it cost around 18,000 pesos and later was told it cost 10,000 pesos extra. That's seems like alot of money to renew a passport. Any advice is most welcome.

Maybe the person was giving prices for fake haitian passport, thats crazy, he better go and ask to Haitian embassy in Santo Domingo, or check the addres of Haitian consulate in Santiago or Bavaro depending where he is.

A Haitian passport wouldn't be quoted in pesos. That is not the monetary unit in Haiti, is it?

According to Haitian embassy in the country

Documentos requeridos para emisión de pasaporte:
4 Fotos
Acto de Nacimiento
$US 70 Tiempo de emisión: 8-15 dias

US$70 seems a tad less than RD$28,000 pesos lol.

Retiree, tell your friend it's no more than about 3300 pesos. We helped a Haitian employee with his. Someone is trying to rob your friend.

Haitian friend paid for his passport in November 2016, and it just came it. Expect a long wait.
