(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Consular Fees Order 1989 to increase the fees for passports and to clarify the circumstances in which the fees for a 32 page and a 48 page passport are payable. The fee for issuing a 32 page passport is increased from £15 to £18 and that for a 48 page passport from £22.50 to £27. These fees are payable when a new passport is issued, when an expired passport is replaced by the issue of a new passport and when a new passport of full validity is issued to replace a lost, destroyed, stolen or otherwise unavailable passport which was of restricted validity. The fee for issuing a British Visitor's Passport goes up from £7.50 to £12; where such a passport includes particulars of a spouse the increase is from £11.25 to £18. The fee for issuing an excursion document for travel to France is increased from £2 to £3 and that for a collective passport from £30 to £40. The fee for amending a passport to add particulars of children goes up from £4 to £5; and the fees for amendments involving the holder's name, photograph or description are increased from £3 to £5.
