History of Passports A passport is a document which certifi es the identity and nationality of its holder for the purpose of international travel. It is issued by a national government. One of the earliest written records of a passport type document was in the Old Testament in Nehemiah 2:7-9 at the time of the Persian Empire, about 450 BC. The king’s offi cial, Nehemiah, asked to travel to Judea, and King Artaxerxes I gave him a letter to guarantee safe travel through foreign lands. Passports as we know them today, originated from a conference by the League of Nations in 1920. It was recommended at that time that passports be issued in French and one other language. Now, it is recommended that passports be issued in French or English, or in the national language of the issuing country and in French or English. Created by Donna Ward/Northwoods Press.
