The Federal
Government has increased passport fee by 50%. According to a circular signed by
the Deputy Comptroller in charge of Operations/Passport and released a few days
ago titled 'Passport Reforms', applicants will now pay N15,000 instead of
N10,000. (It was officially N10,000 but we all know how much we really
paid...lol) Also applicants for change of data will pay now N30,000.
A newly
introduced 64-page passport for frequent travelers will cost N20,000, while
Passport for applicants 18 years and below will cost N8,750. It's N15,000
between 18-60 and N8,500 for people above 60 years.
Female applicants, who apply for change of name
as a result of marriage/divorce or deceased spouse, will pay N8,750, while
processing fee for request for change of data will cost N30,000.
All payments
will be made online going forward according to the circular
