Passport issue for adults for the first time
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzThe first issue of a passport must be applied for at the competent authority. Special conditions must be observed when issuing passports to minors for the first time.
The applicant must appear in person to apply for a passport (e-passport). The application is completed on the spot with the processor. The applicant only has to sign.
The personal appearance is essential because of the handwritten signature on the application form and the identity check. Identity can be proven by means of an official photo ID. This is usually the identity card or the previous passport.
However, the passport can also be collected by a person authorized in writing who must provide proof of identity.
Contact the passport office in your municipality of residence.
