Australia has long topped the league table for the price of passports – and, from New Year’s Day, leaving the country will become even more expensive.
Between the start of 2024 and 2025, the cost of a 10-year adult Australian passport rose twice, with the increases amounting to 19 per cent. Currently the price is A$412 (£205), believed to be the first time a standard passport has topped £200 anywhere in the world.
