I couldn’t believe how quick the normal service was. Submitted my application on Monday 27th March and sent my passport over the same day (Royal Mail next day by 1pm). They received my passport and approved application on Wednesday morning. Thursday morning my new passport was printed and I received it on Friday afternoon. 5 WORKING DAYS!!!

I tried to use the 1 week fast track service but there was no appointments. I’m so glad I couldn’t get one now.

Applied online and posted my old documents the same day with Royal Mail 1st Class signed for. Everything was smooth and even though I look quite different to my now 12 year old passport photo there was no issue and I didn’t need any additional identifiers/a person to confirm my identity. Was stressing about this since the announcement of the strikes but from application to arrival was exactly 1 week, easy as! Side note: thanks for this website, it’s a great resource and a wonderful stress reliever.

The updates are brilliant to track. Was incredibly easy to apply for and didn’t take too long at all. I’m very impressed as well as strikes going on i got it very fast. Couldn’t be happier. The expenses of everything together is not cheap however its not needed to pay again for another 10 years so i think its amazing.

Very easy to submit application online took about 10 minutes. Very helpful to be able to track progress of application online and speed of processing application was fabulous – 1 week from submitting application to receiving passport. In my opinion this is probably the best online government service currently offered.

The passport office requested my daughter’s birth certificate even though this was a straightforward renewal and this was not listed as one of the required documents upon application.

Renewal child passport. Sadly had to return to a second appointment (Newport) as French mother and needed marriage certificate but second appointment very good. Had to rebook departure but we’re delighted to receive passport in 3 days. Would recommend checking your application number on TNT tracking website as they only send a text on the day (8am till 8pm…) but it showed on previous day that it had been received and delivery day which allowed us to rebook ferry.

We really hope this information is helpful to you and reduces stress whilst you are waiting for you passport. If you are able to make a small donation for the cost of a coffee it really helps us to maintain the site and continue to make improvements for future passport applicants.
