Sammarinese passports are passports issued to citizens of San Marino for international travel.

Application procedure

Applications for a Sammarinese passport are lodged at the Passport Office in San Marino (or, in the case of citizens living overseas, at San Marino diplomatic missions) with the following documents:[2]

  • Completed passport application form[3]
  • Certificates of birth, citizenship, residence (or relevant self-certification form)
  • Certificates of criminal record, pending suit and full civil capacity (to be issued by the Court without stamp duty)
  • Two photographs, one of which certified by the Registrar of Vital Statistics (also in this case it is possible to use the self-certification form)

In general, the processing time for a passport application is 15 days.

The application fee is €100 for applicants aged over 14, €50 for applicants aged 3–14 and €30 for applicants aged under 3.

Visa requirements

In 2014, citizens of San Marino had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 151 countries and territories, ranking the Sammarinese passport 16th.[4] It is currently (2018), along with the Serbian passport and the Bosnian passport, one of three European "ordinary" passports to provide visa-free access to China. Of all nationals who can travel visa-free to China, the citizens of San Marino and Bosnia and Herzegovina are granted the longest period of stay (90 days).
