The elements of identity are name, date of birth, sex, and place of birth. A passport does not of itself entitle the passport holder entry into another country, nor to Consular assistance consular protection while abroad or any other privileges. It does, however, normally entitle the passport holder to return to the country that issued the passport. Rights to consular protection arise from international agreements, and the right to return arises from the laws of the issuing country.
