Reisepassauszug

Deutsch > Englisch Rechts- und Patentwesen Tourismus und Reisen Application form
Applicants are asked to enclose either a 'Geburtsurkunde' or 'Reisepassauszug'.
Presumably a photocopied passport would not be regarded as equivalent to an original birth certificate.
Do some countries provide passports with 'tear-off slips'?

Hi Andrew, in my opinion, they do mean a photocopy of the corresponding page in the passport (excerpt of the one with the DOB...).

IMO it's not a copy or photocopy of the full passport but simply an "extract"

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks everyone and apologies for flouting the democratic process. My feeling is that ‘photocopy’ is too definite and that ‘extract’ sounds too much like a page torn out. I hadn’t thought of ‘excerpt’ originally but I feel this suitably non-committal."

passport extract

I assume this means an extract of the passport showing date and place of birth.

Applicants for the Australian Postgraduate Award (APA) must provide an original or certified copy of their birth certificate, extract of entry, citizenship certificate or passport extract.

copy of passport

Auszug her is excerpt, it means, only the page(s) with the personal information. Sometimes an official copy needs to be authenticated even. A passport contains a lot of pages which obviously are not necessary to proof who you are. That's how I'd understand it

agree Alison Jenner : although they mean excerpt, I agree that you're far more likely to be asked for "copy of passport" in English
