The UK government introduced new passport fees for all applications on April 11, 2024.
The revised fees include the following:
- a standard online application made from within the UK will rise to £88.50 for adults and £57.50 for children
- a standard postal application will increase to £100.00 for adults and £69.00 for children
- a standard online application when applying from overseas will rise to £101.00 for adults and £65.50 for children
- a standard paper application when applying from overseas will increase to £112.50 for adults and £77.00 for children
The government does not make any profit from the cost of passport applications. The fees contribute to the cost of processing passport applications, consular support overseas, including for lost or stolen passports, and the cost of processing British citizens at UK borders.
The new fees include those newly applying or renewing their passport.
