Authorization to Receive Passport

Ask the passport-holding office whether collection by another person is permitted. A passport can require a specific release process rather than a general letter.

A drafting aid, not a verified record or guaranteed form. Check the facts, your authority, and the recipient’s requirements before sending.

Before you begin

  • Check the office's own collection instructions
  • Use the application reference rather than exposing a full passport number unnecessarily
  • Confirm required identification and whether personal attendance is mandatory.
