Cost of a passport:
To renew an adult, 10 year, 32-page passport costs £72.50 (standard service). There is a fast-track / urgent service at an extra cost.

How to apply:
You can collect a passport application form from Maritime House or any parish hall or post office.

You must complete the application form and submit it to our office with:
** two recent identical photographs
** a countersignature (a witness’ signature), if required
** your passport, if renewing
** the fee

Photograph requirements:
All passport application forms explain what is acceptable in a passport photo.

We do not have an in-house photography facility. All camera shops and photographers in Jersey are aware of our requirements.

If you have links with the UK or other British Islands:
If you were born, adopted, registered or naturalised in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man, you must complete section 4 of the form.

If you have a link with the UK through a parent or grandparent who was born, adopted, naturalised or registered in the UK, you must provide as much information as possible. You only need to provide details of one parent or grandparent, not all.

Signing the application form:
Usually, only you will need to sign the application form, but you will need a countersignature (someone to witness your application) if:
** your appearance is very different from the photo in your current or last passport
** you have lost your passport
** this is your first application
** your passport expired more than a year ago
** your passport was restricted to a limited period
** your passport is damaged

Supporting documents you will need to provide:
If the details in your current or last passport differ to those on your application form, you must submit your birth certificate so that we can update t?he new passport.

If your name has changed (or is about to change) you will have to submit supporting documents.

If your name has changed or is about to change

If you live outside Jersey:
You cannot renew your passport in Jersey if you:
** were not born here and now live in the UK (you must apply through UK offices)
** live abroad (you must apply through the UK embassy, consulate or high commission of the country you are in)

What happens to your old passport:
We will cancel your old passport when a new one is issued and you will not be able to use it. We will return it to you unless it has been defaced or altered (in which case we will destroy it).
