Damaged or Defective Passports

If a passport is torn or damaged, the passport holder is entitled to a new passport with a maximum validity of five years.

Only passports with the following defects will be replaced free of charge:

  • faulty chip
  • faulty laser engraving
  • defective photo
  • damaged data page

If, on the other hand, the passport has been torn, worn out or damaged by the passport holder or someone else, the regular passport fee applies.  Application instructions are the same as for a regular passport.

The new passport may be picked up at any Swedish consulate in the United States.  For pick-up of the new passport at a consular location other than the one at which the application was submitted, there is a fee of $20 for shipping and handling (payable at time of application) as well as a $20 processing fee (payable at pick-up).
