ALERT: Looming passport application/renewal PRICE HIKE!!!
Passport application/renewal prices are set to go up on 27th March 2018 BUT you may be eligible to renew early...
If your passport is due for renewal anytime up until 26th December 2018, you can renew your passport on 26th March (just before the price hike kicks on - brilliant!)! This is because when you renew, the time left on your existing passport is added to your new one, up to a maximum of 9 months.
Even if your passport is due to expire just after 26th December 2018, it might still be worth renewing early and losing a few days from your expiry date. For example, if your passport is due to expire on 31st December 2018, and you renew on 26th March 2018, your new passport will be valid until 26th December 2028, so it may still be worth it overall!
Please see the image below for further details on the price hikes and get those applications in, if you are eligible!
It is worth noting that gov.uk is the ONLY website you need for passport information, applications and renewals. DON'T get caught out by fraudster websites trying to make a quick buck out of your hard earned cash...
