Note: The following general information is intended for PERSONS WHOSE ITALIAN
CITIZENSHIP STATUS HAS ALREADY BEEN DETERMINED.
APPLICATION FOR A NEW PASSPORT
The Consulate General of Italy in Sydney is competent for the issue of passports to Italian nationals residing in
New South Wales and, only in case of documented urgency or necessity, to Italian nationals residing in
Italy or in another Country but temporarily living in NSW.
Duration of the procedure


Unless technical problems incur, passports will be issued the same day of the application. If your
citizenship was recently recognized, if you have always been living in NSW and you are applying for
your first passport, or if your previous passport was issued/renewed from this Consulate, you may fit
in this category.
In all other cases passports will be issued only upon written authorization from the relevant
Authority (Police Headquarter in Italy and/or other Italian Consulate). The acquisition of such
authorization may require a variable waiting period (5-30 days). If you hold a previous passport issued
in Italy or from another Consulate, or if you have lived in Italy or abroad, you may fit in this
category.
What to bring: Please refer to our Step by Step Guide
Important information about the procedure:




All minors are required to have individual passports.
Validity of the passport: Adults: 10 years, Children between 3 and 18: 5 years, Children under 3 years:
3 years.
To issue a passport to a minor the application must be signed by both parents, in person, at the
offices of this Consulate General. Photo ID is required for both parents together with the child’s
Australian passport if the minor is a dual citizen. If one of the parents cannot be present, he/she will
sign the consent form before a Police Officer at any Police Station in NSW.
If the child’s birth has not yet been registered in Italy, the parents must provide the child’s full Birth
Certificate, issued by the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages, legalized by means of an Apostille
and translated into Italian by an accredited NAATI translator (see information on Registration of
Certificates). Please note that passports will not be issued on the same day of lodging of
documents (birth certificate).
LOST, STOLEN OR DAMAGED PASSPORTS


The loss/theft of a passport must be reported immediately to the local Police (in the Country where
the loss/theft has taken place). It is then necessary to come in person to the Consulate and provide
details of the police report (report number). The procedure to follow will then be the same as outlined
under Application for a New Passport.
In the event that a valid passport has been damaged, it must be presented to this Consulate, following
the same procedure outlined under Application for a New Passport.
