TRAVEL DOCUMENT - LAISSEZ PASSER
A Laissez-Passer is a travel document issued in exceptional cases to enable the beneficiary to return to Algeria. It cannot be used as an identity document. The Laissez-Passer has very limited validity and should only be used to enter Algeria on a direct flight.
Laissez-Passer is issued to any Algerian citizen not registered at the Embassy who has reported the loss or the theft of his/her passport and wishes to return to Algeria as soon as possible.
Required Documents to apply for a Laissez-passer*:
- Application form. Download the application form here
- Declaration of loss of passport. Download Declaration Form here
- Proof of Algerian nationality (national identity card, military card with photograph). Driving license and birth certificate are not acceptable as they don’t constitute evidence of nationality
- Four (4) recent photographs
- Travel ticket
