OFS has produced the old passport since 2003. The new general contractor, Thales DIS Schweiz AG, commissioned OFS for the design and printing of the new passport's cover and paper pages. Although the design of the passport has taken a completely different form, its functionality and performance remain the same. The new passport represents the highest security and quality standards and is equipped with state-of-the-art security features realized through its modern and appealing design concept.
