- certificates of birth, citizenship, residence (or relevant self-certification form)
- certificates of criminal record, pending suit and full civil capacity (to be issued by the Court without stamp duty)

In general, the processing time for a passport application is 15 days.
The application fee is €60 for applicants aged over 14, €20 for applicants aged 3–14 and €10 for applicants aged under 3.
