Will a passport fit with its cover? Check mini-bag interiors and outer pockets
At the airport, being able to take out your passport with its cover on leaves a little more room to breathe. Choose a small travel bag with that movement in mind.
Use the passport's size with its cover and any papers included as your starting point. Decide between the main compartment and an outer pocket, then check the opening and internal dimensions.
Measure it as carried, not the passport alone
Measure height, width and thickness with the cover closed. If adding tickets or notes, check for protruding edges. Official passport dimensions do not tell you your own cover's size.
Before assuming a vertical bag will fit, check opening length and internal seam positions. Leave enough room to remove the passport without bending or forcing it.

Points to check before using an outer pocket
V lists external flap, vertical-zip and rear-zip storage; Q lists front and rear pockets. This does not establish passport fit in every pocket.
Balance the convenience of an outer pocket with managing valuables. A zip alone does not complete theft protection; choose a location around the setting and access frequency.
