NOTE:

The biometric passport is issued only by the State Migration Service of Turkmenistan. The Embassy does not issue a new biometric passport.  Before the expiry date of his/her biometric passport, a citizen of Turkmenistan who is abroad must travel to Turkmenistan and submit documents for obtaining a new passport at the Migration Service in Turkmenistan, as the biometric data must be submitted personally by the applicant.

On the website (https://migration.gov.tm/pages/pasport-perecen) of the State Migration Service of Turkmenistan, there is a List of documents required for the issuance of a Turkmen passport with biometric data.
