Passports
Irish passports use the standard EU design, with a machine-readable identity page and 32, 48 or 64 visa pages. The identity page on older Irish passports was on the back cover of the booklet. Newly issued passports have been redesigned with additional security features. The identity page is now a plastic card attached between the front cover and the first visa page. The cover bears the harp, the national symbol of Ireland, along with the words "European Union" and "Ireland" in English and Irish.
