  • The cost to renew your Passport.

    Following on from Lawren's thread about the cost of driving licence renewals, I thought it would be interesting to compare the cost of passport renewals.

    This year, Australian Passports cost

    $208 AUD for an adult 32 page, 10 year passport and
    $104 AUD for a child (under 18 years old) 32 page, 5 year passport

    Plus the cost of photos $12.50 AUD per person

    Total $557.50 AUD (equivalent to $495 USD) for 2 Adults + 1 Child

    I also renewed 2 x Adult (over 16 years old) European Union Passports via the British High Commission at a cost of $293 AUD each.

    Plus photos of $12.50 AUD per person.

    Total $611 AUD (equivalent to $543 USD) for 2 Adult passports.

    Sure bumps up the cost of a holiday

    U.S. Passport book renewal fee for adult is $75 plus photos.
    Minors are required to renew in person $60 renewal fee + $25 execution fee + photos.

    What I can't find is what they are going to charge me for DS renewing and changing to an adult passport. (His expires sometime this summer but I am waiting for his 16th birthday at end of August so he can renew as an adult as those are good for 10 years and minor are only good for 5) I'm assuming they will want the $75 + $25 execution fee.

      If I'd have known the execution fee for minors was only $25, I'd have had the kids executed before they became adults.

        Canada

        I just renewed my passport.

        $87 CDN for 5 year adult passport
        $15 CDN for pictures

        $37 CDN for 5 year child (ages 3-15) passport + picture cost
        $22 CDN for 3 year child (under age 3) passport + picture cost

        The costs are higher for Canadians living abroad

          UK adult passport is now £77.50, child is £49.00. I think a child passport is only valid for 5 years.

            So I paid over double the price to renew my British passport here . Just as well the dollar is doing OK against the pound at the moment.
