Written application for a passport

What do you need for your written passport application.

Important:


The Embassy can only issue passports for citizens who are registered in the Embassy's consular registers. 

Therefore, if the ID application concerns a newborn child or a person who has not yet been registered at the Embassy in Tokyo, a complete registration application must also be done.
