Passport
Switzerland issues biometric passports ('Pass 10') which feature an electronic chip containing the holder's facial image and two digital fingerprints, in addition to personal data. Responsibility for the entire delivery process lies with the competent commune units in the cantons of residence in Switzerland and the diplomatic and consular representations abroad. Information on documents needed and forms to download are available online for each canton and corresponding commune of residence.
