Just a heads up, Australian Passports are going up by 15% on the 1st July 2024, so if your passport is up for renewal or you need a new one, now is the time to do it!
Also, there will be the new fast-track system for passport applications. From July, applications can be processed within five business days for a $100 fee. This is an appealing option for travellers wanting greater certainty over when they will receive their passport but who don’t need a two-day turnaround, which currently costs $252.
