Note: The grounds for promulgation of this Act are as follows: Whereas now terrorism and transnational crimes have greatly increased in terms of intensity and complexity of forms, in which passports have been used as an instrument of the commission, resulting in an impact upon national security of the Country and international relations, it is appropriate to extend the scope of the offences relating to passports and it is appropriate to designate rates of punishment suitable for the offences. Therefore, it is necessary to enact this Act.
