Communiqué
The Embassy of Algeria in Canberra would like to inform its nationals, residing in Australia, New Zealand and the countries of the South Pacific, registered with its services, that the conversion of the ordinary passport into a biometric one must be done before 24 November 2015, deadline fixed by the International Civil Aviation Organization.
Therefore, the Embassy will no longer extend or renew ordinary passports without application for the biometric one. We strongly recommended to our citizens to apply for their biometric passport as soon as possible in order to avoid any inconvenience.
