The federal government has announced a significant increase in passport fees, with citizens now required to pay an additional 50 percent amount to obtain the essential travel document.

The Directorate General Immigration and Passports issued a notification detailing the new fee structure, which ranges from Rs4500 to Rs27,000 for different types of passports.

Here is a breakdown of the new passport fees:

Similarly, the urgent processing fee for the same passport type has increased from Rs5,000 to Rs7,500.

For a 10-year validity 36-page passport, the fee has been adjusted to Rs6,700, up from Rs4,500, with the urgent processing fee now set at Rs11,200.

Those opting for a 72-page passport will now pay Rs8,200 for a 5-year validity period and Rs13,500 for urgent processing. For a 10-year validity 72-page passport, the fees stand at Rs12,400 and Rs20,200 for standard and urgent processing, respectively.
