Gemini on Question 17, Oct 3

In the original James Bond novels and short stories written by Ian Fleming, James Bond's exact passport number is never stated.

While Fleming was famous for including highly specific details about Bond's life—such as his firearm models, his Double-O section number (007), his exact brand of cigarettes, and the license plate of his Bentley—he never provided the serial or document number for Bond's passport.

Fleming does, however, provide several other details about Bond's travel documents throughout the books:

• •His Profession: When traveling under his own name, Bond's passport usually lists his profession as "Civil Servant" or occasionally "Company Director."
• •Aliases: Bond frequently uses fake passports provided by MI6's Q-Branch (or the document forgery department). For example, he travels under the alias "Peter Franks" in Diamonds Are Forever and "David Somerset" in From Russia, with Love.
• •Appearance: Fleming occasionally describes the physical state of the passports, noting when MI6 has expertly aged a brand-new forged passport so it doesn't look suspicious to customs officials.

(Note: If you are thinking of a specific passport number, you may be thinking of the film franchise. For example, in the 2006 film Casino Royale, Daniel Craig's James Bond is issued a passport with the number 136141444, but this was an invention of the film's prop department, not Ian Fleming.)
