The new passport features some of Belgium’s most well-known fictional characters printed on its pages. So there are characters like Tintin, the Smurfs, Lucky Luke, and Mortimer, among others.
Sophie Wilmès, Belgium’s Foreign Minister, stated in a statement that the new passports are even more secure and include new personalization techniques. She went on to say that these new passports will be “recognizable due to its original design, which honors one of our culture’s jewels: the heroines and heroes of comic strips.”
The Minister expresses gratitude to the publishers, authors, and right holders of these comic characters who collaborated on the project, which resulted in this all-new fun and cool passport.
