The Guyanese passport is issued to citizens of Guyana for international travel. As of July 2007, Guyana has issued the common Caribbean passport, featuring the logo of the Caribbean Community on the cover.
The passport contains 32 pages and is issued for a validity period of 5 years. New machine readable passports are issued by the Passport Office within 5–7 days in Guyana (Weekend not included). The old Green cover passports remain valid until the end of their stated period of validity.
All passports are processed and issued by the Central Immigration and Passport Office (an arm of the Guyana Police Force) in Georgetown, Guyana. The Passport Office falls under the purview of the Ministry of Home Affairs.
