It's Bush's fault. No, really, it is! There would have to be new passports anyway because of the mandatory biometrical features. We also have new passports in Germany.


Old German passport.


New German ePass


Old polish passport (2001-06)


New Polish passport.

However, it makes sense to put "European Union" on the passport, as EU countries are required to help other EU nationals in need abroad, e.g. a Polish citizen can seek refuge at the French embassy in Tehran.
