Important Information

The High Commissioner in London was here at this Copenhagen Consulate in December 2009 together with President H.E.Paul BIYA in connection with the COP 15-Conference.

We discussed the situation regarding the new Cameroonian Biometric (CEMAC) passports.

This consulate was authorised to inform Cameroonians that old passports are valid until they expire – even after future prolongations.

The procedure to obtain the new type passport is very complicated.

The only problem with the old passport is that it can not be used for entering USA.

Our advice to Cameroonians:

Keep your old passport and prolong it when it expires.

Keep it together with your new biometric passport when you obtain that.

• Biometric passports are complicated. Difficult to obtain.
• No children. Children must have their own passport.
• Valid for 5 years only. Can not be prolonged.
• New biometric passport can not be obtained until max. 6 months prior to the previous one expires.
