Applicants will be contacted at the earliest, after the treatment of their application, to take the biometrics : pictures and fingerprints. Except children under 12 years old, the photo that will appear on the passport is the one taken at the Consular Section, hence the presence of under 12 years old children is not mandatory.

The presence of the person concerned is mandatory. He/She must provide an identity document proving his Algerian nationality and a loss declaration issued by the local police noting the circumstances of the loss/theft.
Renewal of lost, stolen or damaged passport is subject to the payment of a fee of one hundred (100) euros, in addition to the stamp duty set at 60 euros, a total of 162 euros, and a fee of ten (10) euros for the National Biometric Identity Card (new provisions of the Finance Act 2017, Articles 18 and 21, Official Journal No. 77).
