Turnaround Times - How quickly can I get my passport?

Information on turnaround times for Irish citizens resident in Brazil.

The current standard processing time for passports is approximately 6-8 weeks.

A temporary passport can be issued on the day only in the case of an emergency situation (the death or serious illness of a family member).

In all other circumstances, you will have to wait a minimum of five working days to get a temporary passport. Valid proof of confirmed travel (e.g. airline ticket/email) must be presented in order for any application to be processed sooner than the standard turnaround. You may incur an additional fee.

The fees for temporary passports are as follows:

TEMPORARY PASSPORTS Reais Euro
Adults R$385.00 €110.00
Child R$193.00 €55.00
Emergency Travel Certificate - Single Journey Only ​R$105.00 ​€30.00
