Passport Prices Reduced (UK)
« on: September 06, 2012, 08:54:27 AM »
The IPS has reduced the passport fee for UK customers, with the exception of collective passports. A UK adult passport will now cost £5 less (£72.50 or £85.50 for the 48 page passport) and a child's passport is £3 less (£46.00).

"The price of a standard passport will be reduced by £5 from this autumn, Immigration Minister Damian Green announced today.

From 3 September 2012, the standard adult passport fee will be reduced by almost seven per cent  from £77.50 to £72.50."

I used to buy those British Visitor's passports that lasted a year at a time. Remember those?
