- Personal appearance is required: fingerprints are taken, so postal applications and proxies are not possible
- Biometric passport photos that meet the official requirements
- Application form, fee and appointment booking: see the website of the responsible mission
- Some honorary consuls accept passport applications and forward them for an extra fee
Lost passport – travel document for the return trip
- The consular section can issue a Reiseausweis als Passersatz (passport substitute) for the return to Germany
- It is valid for at most one month
