Passport for children below the age of 18 (consent required)

Children below the age of 18 can only apply for a passport with their parents’ (legal guardians’) consent. Parents can provide their digital permission at least 2 working days before the appointment. If legal guardianship has been arranged through the courts, please make sure you bring along the excerpt of the Centraal Gezagsregister (Central Parental Responsibility Register). You can find more info about this at Rechtspraak (only available in Dutch). 

Children always have to be present at the application and when you collect the passport.

Travel document consent form (Sign in with DigiD, only available in Dutch)

Don't have a DigiD? Then you can pick up a consent form at the Burgerzaken desk at city hall. Complete the form (only available in Dutch) and bring this along to the appointment. The signature on the form must be the same as on the proof of identity provided.

Collect passport 

You can collect your passport almost always after 5 working days (after 10:00 o’clock). You do not have to make an appointment to collect your passport. More information about the opening hours Burgerzaken. 

Get a passport with urgency

Do you urgently need a passport? Then you can make an online appointment for a new passport. During the appointment, you can say that you would like to urgently get your passport. This will cost more money.

If you apply for the document before 13:00 o’clock, then you can almost always collect it the next working day after 10:00 o’clock. You do not have to make an appointment to collect your passport. More information about the opening hours Burgerzaken.

Cancel a lost or stolen passport

If your passport is lost or stolen, make sure to let us know as soon as possible. This will reduce the risk of identity fraud.
