The Brazilian Passport is the official document for foreign travel issued by the Brazilian government, through the Brazilian Federal Police. A new model was officially introduced in July 2015 that complies with both Mercosul and ICAO standards, and bring a new biometric cryptography method, and replaces the last model, from 2010. The new passport also has a new due date of 10 years. As a rule, Brazilian passports are valid for ten years (five years, on 2010 model) from the date of issue. They cannot be renewed: a new passport must be obtained when the previous one has expired or a minimum validity period is required by the country to be visited. Brazilian passports can be ordered by mail for a duration of 3 years at the Brazilian consulate that has jurisdiction over the person's residence in a foreign country. The instructions say that whether applying for a "new" passport or a "renewal", the same application is used.〔http://www.brazilsf.org/other_brazilian_passport.htm〕 Brazilian citizens do not need a passport when traveling to most other South American countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Paraguay, Uruguay). For these countries, they may use just their domestic identification cards. In December 2014, the Federal Police Department extended the validity of the document, from five to ten years (). ==The "green" (old) and "blue" (new) models== The newest model for Brazilian passports, introduced in December 2006, follows the standard established by the Mercosul countries concerning cover color (dark blue for common passports) and the printing of the name ''Mercosul'' (Portuguese) or ''Mercosur'' (Spanish) on the upper portion of the cover, with the country name below it. The new passport model was first issued to Brazilian citizens for travel outside the country in 2007 and by May 2010 was the sole model being issued.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/turismo/368345-passaporte-azul-esta-implantado-em-todo-o-brasil-saiba-como-tirar.shtml )〕 The previous, "old" model has a dark-green cover and is not machine-readable. It does not have the name ''Mercosul'' printed on its cover, either. The even older model (also green) that was used until the 1970s, following that time's diplomatic tradition, had the inside pages printed only in Portuguese and French; the more recent "green" model has text in Portuguese, French and English. The latest, "blue" model is in four languages: Portuguese, French, English and Spanish, but the page with the holder's identification data is in Portuguese and English only, and the cover only in Portuguese. Older passports (the "green" model) were produced either by Casa da Moeda do Brasil, the government's official mint, or by the American Bank Note Company. New passports (the "blue" model) are made solely by Casa da Moeda. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brazilian passport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
