Passport warning – apply for yours now or risk missing out on holiday
People who need a new passport ahead of a spring or summer holiday are being urged to apply now. Holidaymakers are being warned to allow 10 weeks for the essential document if they are planning to go abroad.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman told MPs this week: “Customers should continue to allow 10 weeks. I urge people to apply in good time and not at the last minute."Those who do apply are in for a shock. The price of a new passport has gone up. The Government’s web page said of the fee hike: “The new fees will help the Home Office move towards a system that meets its costs through those who use it, reducing reliance on funding from general taxation. The Government does not make any profit from the cost of passport applications.
It is the first time in five years that the cost of applying for a passport has increased, the Home Office said, adding that the proposals are subject to parliamentary scrutiny.
