Stupid question, whats the official website? there seem to be a lot of 3rd party services out there?

You’ll need to get the forms from the post office.

£72 for a renewal, just sent mine off yesterday

im so glad the company pays for mine – was 115 quid last time(the many pages express quicker than quick service) for my second one and i need to renew my original now :S

You don’t need to get the forms from the PO, fill it all in online using Rob_S link above, check, check and check again its all correct, wait for it to be posted out, sign it, make the payment and send it back.

Did mine a couple of weeks ago, seventy odd quid for a renwal and had it back within a week

“It costs £72.50 by post or £81.25 through the Post Office’s Passport Check & Send service”

That’s just criminal……

Need to renew mine after next weeks trip…..

Do anyone know if you can just turn up at your lacal pass port office with your old one and a couple of photos and do it there and then?
