Fadi, who bought the passport within one hour of arriving onsite for his first visit with his family, was excited to see everything the Expo site provides and intends to see as much as possible, starting with several country pavilions. He said: “First, I will visit my home country Egypt, then the UAE, Australia, and the UK. I want to discover as much as I can this week. I’m excited to go to the pavilions. I love most of the decorations; everything looks fantastic – it’s amazing.” Image Credit: Expo 2020 Dubai
Designed to reproduce the look and feel of a national passport, the 50-page book marries the UAE’s rich history with its modern present and promotes the main element aspects of the website within its pages, including Mission Possible – The Opportunity Pavilion, Alif – The Mobility Pavilion, Terra – The Sustainability Pavilion, and the beating heart of Expo, Al Wasl Plaza. Additionally, it features depictions of Dubai’s unmistakable skyline and culture of pearl diving and falconry, in addition to watermarks on each page. Image Credit: Expo 2020 Dubai
No two passports are alike, with each booklet issued with an original number and a personalized page where visitors can fill out their information and attach a photo secured with a peel-off clear adhesive sheet. Passports can be found to buy from official Expo 2020 stores located over the Expo site,
