Note:

Minors must always be accompanied by both parents, who must authorize the procedure in person. If one of the parents is not present to carry out the procedure, their absence can be justified as follows:

• If one of the parents is in Uruguay the absent parent should request a minor’s permit for the issuance of a passport for the first time at the Department of Travel Documentation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cuareim Street 1384, Monday to Friday from 10:00 to 15:00).
• If one of the parents is abroad: request a minor’s permit authorizing the issuance of a passport for the first time at the nearest Uruguayan Consulate. It is important to have this minor’s permit before requesting an appointment for the minor’s first passport, since without authorization, the procedure cannot be carried out.
• If mother/father deceased: present a death certificate. If it was issued in Uruguay it should have been issued less than 30 days ago. If it was issued in Israel it should have been duly apostilled and translated by one of the Honorary Consuls.

Once you have carefully reviewed the requirements detailed above, request an appointment via Consulate WhatsApp +972559893089, sending the required documents photographed or scanned.
