Passport types

The Italian passport is an identification document needed to travel internationally; all those who plan to travel must obtain the Italian passport.

There are two types of documents:

  • The ordinary passport – it is the standard document
  • The temporary passport – this is a paper-format emergency document

Holding a passport does not necessarily mean one can travel freely in anu destination country; in fact, most country worldwide require a visa on the passport.

Support with the application

During the consultation, our experts will advise on the correct procedure applicable to the single case.

Generally, the application for issuing a passport shall be submitted to the territorial competent office based on the applicant’s country of residence, in Italy or abroad.

Accordingly, if you reside outside of Italy, you can apply for the Italian passport at the Italian diplomatic representation in your country of residence. If you reside in Italy, instead, you must apply for the passport at the local police headquarters competent for your residency. In specific cases, the passport may be issued by an office other than the one of residence, provided that a prior authorization is obtained.

Passport validity

The validity of the ordinary passport depends on the applicant’s age. It is valid 3 years for minors under 3 years of age, 5 years for minors from 3 to 18 years of age. For adults, it is valid 10 years.

Furthermore, expired passports can no longer be renewed. This means that the applicant must apply for a new passport. The procedure to renew the passport is the same as for applying for a new one.

We adhere to established processes and internal policies for the passports obtainment.
