Normal processing time for a passport application is 15 working days. However, it is recommended that you apply
for your passport several months in advance of your planned departure. If you will need visas from foreign embassies,
allow more time. If you need to leave in a hurry, you may expedite the process for an additional fee of one 32-gm Texas
Silver Unit per passport. When requesting expedited service, two-way overnight mail for each application is strongly
suggested. If you are applying by mail and wish to have your processing expedited, clearly mark the envelope
EXPEDITED. You should receive your passport in 7–10 business days if using expedited service and two-way overnight
delivery, depending upon the reliability of your overnight service. (For the time being, please contact the passport office
or the Secretary of State, if you need expedited service.)
If your passport is lost, stolen or destroyed, report the loss on a Passport Replacement Form when you apply for
your new passport. If you are abroad, report the loss immediately to local police authorities and the nearest Texas embassy
or consulate. Remember to pencil in your current location in the space provided in your passport, so that, if it is found, it
can be returned to you. The State Dept. suggests you make two copies of the identification pages (2 and 3) — one to leave
with a friend or relative at home in case of an emergency, and one to keep with you in the event that your passport is lost,
stolen or destroyed while abroad. This will make it easier to get a new passport, should it be necessary. It is also a good
idea to carry two extra passport-size photos with you.
The Republic of Texas Passport is a contract with the People of the Republic. By accepting the contract, the Texian
National is agreeing to represent the honor and integrity of the Republic and it's People in foreign lands, whether the
Texian is there in an official capacity or otherwise. The Republic's agreement is to do all in its power to defend and
protect the rights of the (presumed) innocent Texian in foreign lands from unjust prosecution and/or imprisonment or
unwarranted execution (under natural law), in a worse-case scenario. There are a number of other details implied in the
Passport contract, too numerous to mention here. In general, the rights, duties and responsibilities of each party are
mostly covered (though not necessarily specifically) in Vattel's Law of Nations and in various international conventions,
such as the Vienna Convention 1961.
It is important to understand that a passport is not a license to do anything that is otherwise unlawful, nor does it
imply a right to travel to any foreign land, except by permission of the host country. It is the Holder's responsibility to
secure a visa from the authorized representative of the host country before attempting to enter their land.
As a Texian, you are also responsible for understanding what is expected of a foreigner (you) in the land you plan to
visit, their customs and laws, which are likely to be different from those of Texas, as well as different from other
countries. Even otherwise friendly countries may have particular rules and regulations that, by requesting entry, you are
expected to follow, or suffer the consequences according to their laws. For example, it is a crime to swear or use offensive
language on the streets of some countries, such as Trinidad and Tobago. In some other countries it is very offensive to
hold your thumb up in the air as we do to say "OK". It means something completely different to them. We consider it bad
manners to belch at the table. In some other countries, you are expected to belch, or the cook (or host) will take offense.
NOTICE:
Until such time as the Republic of Texas regains control of the soil and the United States Immigration Department
is no longer operating our ports of entry, there is no guarantee that they will honor our passports upon return from abroad. The
Secretary of Foreign Affairs, in conjunction with the Secretary of State, is in the process of attempting to secure the right of reentry for
traveling Texians. As in anything that the occupying force is involved in, what they are expected to do or are "supposed" to do and
what they actually do are frequently very different things. * Texian Nationals should always be aware of this, and try to avoid
confrontations with our occupiers, wherever possible. The highest law is the preservation of life. Live to fight (struggle) another day.
Texas will regain its freedom when the Creator says it is time. Texas will be free!
¡¡VIVA TEXAS - VIVA LA REPUBLICA!! LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS!!
* International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights - Article 12:
1. Everyone lawfully within the territory of a State shall, within that territory, have the right to liberty of movement and freedom to choose his
residence. 2. Everyone shall be free to leave any country, including his own. 3. The above-mentioned rights shall not be subject to any restrictions
except those which are provided by law, are necessary to protect national security, public order (ordre public), public health or morals or the rights
and freedoms of others, and are consistent with the other rights recognized in the present Covenant. 4. No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of the
right to enter his own country.
