Issuing of Italian passports: new provisions on digital fingerprints In accordance with the EC Regulation no. 2252/2004, starting from February 15, 2010, Italian citizens wishing to apply for a new passport are kindly requested to personally visit the consular section of the Italian Embassy in Helsinki for the recording of their fingerprints.
Therefore, starting from the above mentioned date, Italian citizens shall not send by mail to the Embassy the documents needed for the renewal of their passport, as they ought personally visit the consular section of the Italian Embassy.
