We are pleased to announce that from 7 April 2014 the fee for applying for a UK passport from overseas will be reduced by £45 for adults and £28.50 for children. Her Majesty’s Passport Office is making this reduction to give the fee payer better value for money as a result of the efficiency savings made by bringing the processing and issuing of overseas passports back to the UK.
