Out of force - children's passport change due to change of address
Service Description
From January 1, 2024, it will no longer be possible to apply for a children's passport.If you move from another city or municipality, you must have your child's new place of residence entered in their children's passport immediately.
Please note! In the event of a name change, a new children's passport is required.
Process flow
