Passports


All Cypriot citizens are eligible for a Cyprus Passport.


What is the Biometric Passport?

Biometric passports are electronic documents which store the biometric data of the holder, as indicated by their name.

Biometric passports are issued by the Republic of Cyprus since 13/12/2010 under Regulation (EC) No 2252/2004 of 13 December 2004 on standards for security features and biometrics in passports and travel documents issued by Member States and under international standards as set by the ICAO (international Civil Aviation Organization).

The biometric passports carry a microchip in which the biometric data of the holder are stored, such as fingerprints, biometric photograph and digital signature.

The use of biometric data, which are unique, measurable, physical characteristics of each individual, both certify the identity of the passport holder and also help tackle the increased incidents of use of fraudulent travel documents.

The above biometric data (i.e. biometric photograph, fingerprints and digital signature) are collected at the Embassy of the Republic of Cyprus in Stockholm, therefore the physical presence of the interested person is required.
