How to Apply for a Passport
Apply Online
This is the fastest and cheapest way to get your first Irish passport or renew your passport. Once you have your photo, it only takes about ten minutes!
Passport Online is the only way to apply for an Irish Passport in your country.
Passport Online will return your passport book, passport card and relevant supporting documentation directly to you.
If you are resident outside of Ireland, you need to use an APS2 application form.
APS2 forms are available from the Embassy, Avenida Julius Nyerere, 3630, Maputo during consular services opening hours.
Applications must be made on an original APS2 application form. This application form is only available at Irish Embassies and Consulates; it is a different form to the form available from the Passport Office in Ireland.
Please read the notes and each section carefully before completing the application form. Application forms which are not correctly completed cannot be processed and this will cause delay.
