Venezuelan passports (Spanish: Pasaporte venezolano) are issued to citizens of Venezuela to travel outside the country. Biometric passports have been issued since July 2007, with a RFID chip containing a picture and fingerprints; passports issued earlier remained valid until they expired.
As of 2015[update], passports were 34 pages long and displayed a biometric symbol on the bottom of the cover. The cover is deep blue and shows the name Mercosur followed by "República Bolivariana de Venezuela" on the top.
The holder's personal information is written in a digital format on a plastic card which also bears a machine-readable zone on the bottom, and a picture of the holder on the left.
Starting from 19 April 2021, all new passports for adults will cost US$200 or PTR 3.6 valid for 10 years. For Children aged 4 and 17 150 USD PTR 2.7. And for babies aged 0 and 3 PTR 1.8 [1]
Due to the difficulty to obtain a new passport in Venezuela, the United States,[2] Canada,[3] Spain[4] and several Latin American countries[5] accept the use expired Venezuelan passports up to five years.
