Poland in Sweden

You can apply for a temporary passport at any Polish consular post. Please remember that you will apply for and collect your new temporary passport at the same consular post.

Temporary passport applications must be submitted in person

You can book your appointment to apply for a temporary passport via the e-konsulat. 

PLEASE NOTE: In an emergency (for example, in case of a death of a family member, sudden illness, lost or stolen documents and the need to urgently return to the place of permanent residence), call a consular post or send an e-mail describing your situation and attach the supporting documents. Please remember to specify your given name, surname, place of residence outside Poland and a phone in the e-mail.

During your appointment at the consular post, you will make an electronic application for a child’s passport to be issued by a Polish consul. A consular employee will fill in the electronic form, and you will confirm the accuracy of the data by signing on the designated device (Signature Pad).

•    A biometric colour photo—read what the photo should look like.

PLEASE NOTE: You must attach a photo to the application. If you do not attach the photo or if it does not meet the requirements, the consul will not accept your application.

•    A valid passport or ID card (if issued) confirming your identity and Polish nationality.

NOTE: In case of reasonable doubts as to your identity, nationality or other details necessary to file the passport application, the consul may request that you submit additional documents.
REMEMBER! If you are planning to travel abroad with the temporary passport, check the current rules of entry and stay of foreigners in the country of destination. Make sure that you can cross the border with the temporary passport and check the required validity period (at entry and departure). 

The fee for issuing a temporary passport while you wait for the biometric passport is 217 SEK.

The fee for a temporary passport issued for other purpose than to cover the biometric passport delivery time is: 

542 SEK – in office hours,

1083 SEK – outside office hours,

2165 SEK – on a non-business day.

NOTE: Reduced fees do not apply in the case of issuing a temporary passport (reduced fees only apply to biometric passports).

The fees must be paid at the consular post when submitting the application. Accepted forms of payment: cash and payment card

You will receive the temporary passport as soon as possible.

Can I get a temporary passport?

A temporary passport may be issued, for instance:

- if you are staying outside Poland and are waiting to collect your passport (if this is your wish and you apply for the temporary passport);

- in the event of an emergency (for example, to enable you to return to the place of your permanent residence, due to illness, funeral of a family member, or work-related matters) if you submit documents confirming the occurrence of the above circumstances, which require you to obtain the document urgently.
