Passports and eID cards


03.10.2022.

 

In Latvia, legislation determines that the identity card or passport of a Latvian citizen or non-citizen is a mandatory personal identification document for a Latvian citizen or non-citizen who has reached the age of 15. The person must have at least one valid identity document, passport or identity card (eID card). You can also select both of these documents.

From 1 May 2023, the identity card (eID card) will be a mandatory personal identification document for a Latvian citizen or non-citizen reaching the age of 15 years. The passport will be issued to a person if she has a valid identity card (eID card) or at the same time as the identity card (eID card).

Documents for the issuance of personal identification documents shall be submitted and the identity documents shall be receive in the territorial division of the OCMA.
