Anyone applied for a new passport y recently. How long did it take

[ZolaBudd]

They’re saying ten weeks ? Surely not

i dont think that time statement on the website gets changed... I got mine back this month in under 2 weeks.

Oh thank GOD. Mine is a replacement. I did the whole application and the counter signature all in one day, so hopefully not too long.

Ooh look

Mine took 7 days a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks everyone. X

Mine was submitted on 5 August and arrived today.

DD's was under 2 weeks about 3 weeks ago.
Upgrading child to adult.

more reassurance - thanks all

Less than two weeks, including a deed poll change of name. That was in July.

Less than 2 weeks. Got it all done, photo too at the post office.

First passport for baby, about 2 weeks, and that was including the farce of rejecting the first co signature and resigning ( all online)

DH recently did his renewal and it was back within a few days. We did pay for next day delivery both ends though (about £13 in total on top of the renewal price).

This won't help you but my son recently applied on line for his Irish passport renewal and it arrived in the post 24 hours later. (We're in Dublin) I was amazed.

Less than 2 weeks earlier this month

Do got his renewed in less than 2 weeks. My first passport took almost a month. Ds has been waiting a while but he has encountered some incompetence which none of the rest of us have. Dd2 got his last year in less than a month. They seem to be quite quick overall especially if its a renewal.

the ireland one is amazing!

When do you travel?

lol at those who voted me unreasonable great bantz

15 Sept

I would think it will be quite fast because I did the one week fast track option and it arrived 2 days after my appointment this week.

i think that is the offer though on fast track.
I got all my stuff in one day - the countersignature etc

A week for a replacement adult passport

thanks mate

@ZolaBudd why did you need a countersignature? You don't usually need one for an adult renewal

6 days for a replacement.
Yes I was astonished.
