Renewing child's passport

[kirinm]

Has anyone renewed their child's passport recently? I'm just wondering how long it takes. I may come to regret doing it as it wasn't needed for this (planned but not yet booked) Easter break but did need to be done for the summer.

Sent one 25th Jan and had it back in 8 days !

We renewed DDs in November - took 5 days to be returned

@Star81 Oh wow! That is quick. I send the old passport back by special delivery on Thursday so your post has given me hope!

Ah your posts are a relief. I hadn't even thought about the timeframe until yesterday when I realised we were looking at 7 or 8 weeks until I want to go away. Fingers crossed it'll be fine then.

I have distant memories of people struggling to get passports back at some point in the not too distant past and was worried we were still dealing with those sorts of timeframes.

Just got a new child's passport two weeks from sending the documents.
