Despite a strike held by the Interior Ministry's offices throughout the country Wednesday, an emergency committee for urgent matters can be reached by the public via facsimile at 02-670-1572.
The public will not be issued new passports, identification cards or visas, nor will they be able to have these documents renewed.
Workers will be striking to protest a decision to outsource on some of the services offered by the ministry.
