How long does it take to get a passport?

1 answer

The processing time for a passport can vary depending on several factors such as the type of service requested, the time of year, and the volume of applications being processed. In general, it typically takes about 4-6 weeks to receive a standard passport. However, expedited services are available for an additional fee which can shorten the processing time to 2-3 weeks. Additionally, there are also same day passport services available in certain circumstances. It is recommended to apply for a passport well in advance of any planned travel to ensure that it is processed and received on time.
