Brits warned to apply for their new passport now

Monday, January 16, 2023

The Brits are being warned to apply for their new passports now – or risk being left out of pocket. The passport applications are increasing in price next month – the first time in five years.

It currently costs £75.50 for a standard online application for an adult passport. This is going up to £82.50 – an extra £7 per person.

The kids’ passport applications are going up by nearly £5, going from £49 to £53.50. The postal applications – which are more expensive than online – are also going up in price.

The adult paper applications will go up from £85 to £93, while kids will go from £58.50 to £64.

The families who need to renew all their passports could be forced to pay an extra £30, if applying for two adults and two kids. The new costs will be enforced from February 2.
