Languages
The previous non-Machine-readable passport (MRP) used English (the official language of Guyana) and French as the two languages in the Passport. The current CARICOM Guyana MRP has dropped French and instead uses English and Spanish as the two languages in the Passport. However this is only done on the data page. All other pages use only English.
