Passport Office appointments

Does anyone know the time of day they are usually released?

Getting frantic as I’ve lost my passport and urgently need a new one to travel, and the website just constantly says ‘sorry there are no available appointments’

Bumping because I would like to know as well.

I don’t think they are realised at the same the each day. If you use Twitter, there’s a Twitter bot called “ukpassportcheck” which updates when appointments for the week service and same day service are available and when they go offline - highly recommend! For example, yesterday the same day appointments were released at 11.15 and offline at 12.25. What it doesn’t say is necessarily where the appointments are, so if you need a certain location you might need to keep trying.

P.S. I think you will need the one week service if you have lost your passport rather though.

I thought the passport office were on strike until early May?

I needed a fast track appointment last year.

I had a day off and, no exaggeration, I sat and refreshed the appointment page all day, while I watched tv, until they appeared late morning. Then just booked straight away. It wasn't the best passport office for me but I just needed something so booked the next best!
