The design and personal information contained in passports has changed through the years. Today passports include a photo of the   passport  holder, date and place of birth, and a chip with all of this information. The chip enables the   passport  to be read electronically and also makes the   passport  more difficult to forge. Passports for adults are valid for 10 years. Passports for children under 16 are valid for 5 years.
