The completed application forms can then be submitted either in person (adult) or through a proxy at the Consulate-General.

The new BioPass is valid for 5 years. If your existing passport carries a remaining validity of 9 months or less, the remaining validity of your passport will be carried over to your new passport. In such a case, your new passport will have a validity period of 5 years, plus the remaining validity of your old passport. However, if your existing passport has more than 9 months’ validity, your new passport will have a validity period of 5 years and 9 months.
