Passport Application Form - Summary

The Passport Application Form is a crucial document that consists of two main forms: the Passport Application Form and the Supplementary Form. It’s important to fill out the Supplementary Form only if the references in the Passport Application Form apply to you. If not, you can leave those parts empty.

The information you provide in the application form will be printed in your passport booklet, which is why it’s essential to fill it out carefully. Any mistakes could lead to issues with your application, so it’s vital to check everything before submission.
