The Government of Nepal started issuing Machine Readable Passport (MRP) since 26 December 2010. The hand-written passports will remain valid until 24 November 2015 irrespective of date of expiry beyond that date. The Embassy collects applications for Machine Readable Passport from the Nepalese nationals and their children residing in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden and issues it with a validity period of ten years within a time period of around 12-16 weeks. The Embassy also issues temporary passport with a validity of up to one year to those MRP applicants who need to travel immediately and do not have validity in their hand-written passport. The applicant can either present in person at the Embassy to submit the application or send it through registered mail. The fee structure for issuing passport is as given below:
