Names and photographs of minors below 16 years of age whose births
have been registered with the Embassy and who do not possess
a passport can be included in either
the father’s or the mother’s passport, if a request is made to this effect.
|
|
|
The Embassy can include photographs and names of children
only in “L” and “M” series passports of either parent. The Embassy cannot
include children in the new “N” series passports since their
photographs have to be done digitally, and this
facility is only available with the Department
of Immigration and Emigration in Colombo .
|
|
|
“N” series passports where children’s photographs
are pasted by the Embassy will be cancelled when they
return to Sri Lanka and they will have to obtain new passports
by paying the relevant fee. As a result, there could be inconvenience
if there are visas stamped in those passports. Therefore,
the Embassy will include name/s and photograph/s of children
on their parent’s “N” series passport only if the
parents are willing to accept the above mentioned conditions.
|
|
|
The names of children that already appear in the passport
of one parent may be deleted and included in
the passport of the other parent if so required, with the consent of the parents.
|
|
|
No additional fee will be levied, if the inclusion
of children is done at the time of applying for a new passport.
