Welcome to Rootschat.

It is very unlikely that you will find records of a passport for that time period as they did not exist as we know them until after the First World War.

Other travel documents may have been required although world travel was much freer then and population movements were becoming more common.

As Guyana was a French Colony any records may be either in Guyana itself or more likely in France in which case if you have a look at The Archives Nationales it may assist or at least give a pointer in the right direction

Yes La Guyane is an overseas departement of France (and thus part of the European Union and the Eurozone). Not to be confused with Guyana which is an independent country, formerly British Guiana.

Are you only looking for the passport?
Was he a banker, married to Louise Rodd? If so, there are records for Raoul Lacaud on ancestry. Some border crossings between Mexico and the United States and two listings in the San Antonio, Texas, City Directory.
Also, in Spanish, his death in 1933 and his son Jules' marriage, both in Mexico.
But I didn't see any passport.

On familysearch there is a record of an arrival in New York from Cherbourg (I think). His destination was Mexico.
