The New Production Process
Production sites -Output and projected output
• The new system has been installed in 46
production sites nationwide. This includes
software, hardware and consumables. Extensive
hands-on training has also been provided.
• Passport production under the new system
began during November 2000 and has gradually
increased.
• Output for the year 2001 should be in the order
of 1.2 million passports
• Projected production for 2002 is in the order of
2.4 million with an estimated growth rate
between 5 to 10% per year.
The New Production Process
New developments
To enhance and complement the passport issuing
system, additional developments, many which
comply with governmental plans for e-goverment,
are being designed. Amongst others:
• Information over the Intenet, including pre-infilling
of application form. Data is transferred to a
temporary file and pulled up when the applicant
presents himself at the delegation.
• Appointments trhough the Internet or by telephone.
The New Production Process
New developments
• Reissuing of passports using the Internet. If the
bearer holds a digital passport, he may request a
reissue without presenting himself to the
delegation. Payment will be made by credit card
and delivery through a local courier.
• Travel and visa information over the Internet.
The New Production Process
Projected developments
Plans include production of the new digital
passport around the world using regional data
bases linked to the central data base and data
hosting services.
A total of 70 Embassies, 31 General Consulates and
26 Consulates world wide will be equipped for
production of the new passport. This would add a
total of 500,000 passports/year to current figures.
Additionally, and using the same production
system, an average of 600,000 visas/year and
700,000 consular ID’s could be considered.
Interfaces With Other Systems
Current
The passport issuing system currently interfaces
with the National Registry to verify the birth
certificates provided by the applicants.
A National ID number (CURP) is then provided and
printed on the data page along with other
information. This number is also stored in the
Central Data Base.
Interfaces With Other Systems
Projected
The system is designed to interfase with the
National Immigration Authority for validation of
information on arrival. Future activities include visa
validation.
The system is also designed to interfase with the
National Security Authority for check and validation
of fingerprints against their criminal and
international fingerprint files. Both systems use the
same AFIS provider which is Morpho by Sagem.
