All Australian passports issued after 24 October 2005 and all New Zealand passports issued after November 2005 are called ePassports. An ePassport has a microchip embedded in the centre pages and an international ePassport symbol on the front cover. The microchip contains the same personal information that is on the colour photo page of the ePassport, including a digitised photograph.
