Passports
 

A passport can be expedited if needed in a hurry, whether it is a new passport application, a passport renewal or amendment to a valid passport, such as name changes and addition of visa pages. Same-day issue for very urgent applications may also be available.

If you have an urgent scheduled flight within 21 days or you need to obtain visas before your trip you will be able to apply for fast track passports by providing proof of these departures.

All children from newborn babies to the age of 15 must have their own passports. When they reach 16 they can apply for a standard ten-year passport.

Children who are included on the passport before 5th October 1998, these children can still continue to travel abroad with the passport holder until the child reaches 16, the date expires on the passport and the passport on which the child is included is submitted for amendments.

When the child reaches the age of 16 the passport on which the child is included is submitted for amendments, and they can get a separate passport. When children reach the age of 16 they are required to get their own passport.

Your children’s passports will be valid for 5 years, which can be then extended for another 5 years. All passports should have 2 identical recent photographs of the baby taken against a light coloured background. The baby or child should be on their own without any toys etc in the photo.

The appearance of a baby change rapidly, you can change the photograph after 5 years but this isn’t compulsory.
