The Expo 2020 Dubai special passport is essentially a special memento in the form of a passport that visitors may use to record their journey through the pavilions of over 191 participating countries, organizations, partners, along with a number of special pavilions.
The special passport will be customized to include a unique set of numbers, the holder’s photo and personal details, as well as hidden watermarked images on each page to ensure that no two passports are alike.
The UAE’s past and future heritage
The 50-page passport also contains designs and images of the three thematic pavilions corresponding to the sub-themes of the event, namely The Opportunity Pavilion, The Mobility Pavilion, and The Sustainability Pavilion.
The three thematic pavilions are inspired by the UAE’s heritage of celebrating and linking the past and the future.
Stamps for Expo 2020 passport
The blank pages of the passports are designed to accommodate stamps unique to each pavilion. Visitors may obtain these stamps by simply visiting a pavilion and producing the passport.
