Renewing Your Australian Passport in the UK- Renew passport online
Renewing Your Australian Passport in the UK. Renew passport online
comments below.
last year I decided to renew my passport.
it was getting close to six months from. expiring and some countries don't allow.
you to enter and I had quite a few trips.
planned in 2018 and have now taken but I
didn't want to risk any of those trips.
so I was keen to get that sorted as soon
as possible so this video is about how
to renew your Australian passport. when
you're overseas this is not about how to
lodge a new application this is .if
you've got an existing Australian
passport and you're looking to renew. it
so how long does it take well you need
to allow time to book the appointment .so
I would give yourself two weeks to be
safe and this might change. if it's a
busy period so soon you can do it the
better.
and then after lodging your application
at the passport office. it will take up
to three weeks to arrive the renewal
costs change every year. so I will put
the link down below so that you can see
what the current cluster these will be
in a three million dollars and not the UK
pounds but what the passport office does
is convert what your passport will cost
and the overseas fee and they work hard
to impound and not Australian dollars I
just used a currency converter to see
what that would cost me and it was only
about five pounds so it's a good way to
make sure that you know how much it is
and being five pounds out isn't the
worst thing in the world at least to me
anyway and it gives you a rough
indication of what you need to save or
have ready to pay for that so the next
thing is the passport photo so passport
photos in the UK are different diets and
passport photos in Australia I'll leave
the details below so that you can see
what passports are photo sizes we need
it's easy enough just to go to snappy
snaps and ask them to give you an
Australian passport photo and they would
give that to you in the cracks
instead of asking for a UK passport
photo says those booths at the stations
and things like that it's probably not
the best time dear and I don't trust
myself cutting the photos to be the
right size so once you've got your
passport photos I just like to get that
out of the way so you can do this in any
order that you want but they are a
requirement so you need to get two of
them so once that's done or whenever you
decide to do it then it is going to the
application online Oh again leave the
link below and what happens is that it
will ask you a series of questions it's
pretty easier to ask you a passport
number and things like that
and then any kind of supporting evidence
that it wants you to write after you've
answered those questions it will like
say like it just said here's the photos
and give you anything else that you need
to be aware about and so it's pretty
easy the information that you need as
you can see I've marked out my details
so that you can't see it's just kind of
my address my passport details anything
to do with my contact details my given
names on my birth certificate emergency
contacts and then just a decoration
maybe sign and what the passport office
uses so you fill that out and then you
book an appointment so make sure that
you have your passport application
filled out at a booked appointment, they're
only available from Monday to Friday
from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and I
relieve the a number below so that you
know where to call the passport office
is in London it's in Australia house so
central London and you need to go there
to get your passport application
processed to book an appointment I've
just covered
then when you say the time slots that
they allow you to have an appointment
it's Monday to Friday between 9 and 4
p.m. so you will need to take time off
work if you can't get flexi-time and
things like that
because that's the only time that they
offer the appointment they also don't offer
on bank holidays both for Australian
bank holidays and UK bank holidays to
lucky at them they get quite a lot of
bank holidays compared to us so you
can't get an appointment during those
times so that's just something to be
aware of so once you put your
appointment they'll send you a
notification by email and give me your
time and instructions of how to get
there so you need to relax you
appointment 15 minutes early they have
airport security there so you have one
in one one in through the little room
that they put your bag through it's very
it's not impersonal there's like no
one's standing in this room like they're
all either outside or covered by glass
so you know nothing happens to them and
once they're happy with your bag then
you go in to the passport office
where you collect a number so you went
to your details you collect a number and
then when your number is called you go
up with your 3ds and YouTube passport
photos and your own passport and what
they would do is they'll verify your
application against your passport and
they will then cut the edge off they
won't ask for a payment and they will
give you a receipt of the transaction if
they are happy so you know this is all
happy path if there are any problems or
questions they will inform you of what
to do I didn't have anything
it was literally, five minutes and I was
out I was really quick and easy so once
you have had them proof that then
you've got to wait up to three weeks to
get your passport
and then you get a new shiny ass but
like I did and that's basically the
process there's nothing too much more
than that I do also have an article
about this so I'll leave that in the
links below so that you've got all the
information you need to renew your
passport in the UK I hope that helped
any questions let me know in the
