Cost of a New Passport
Many people wonder about the cost of a new passport. You have to pay the government a passport fee, also known as a passport agency fee. This fee is $209.53 for an adult passport and $30 for a passport card. It is the fee that you would pay at any Department of State designated passport facility; therefore, those are the passport fees at the post office and similar facilities. The fee for expedition through the Department of State is an additional $60.00 for the passport book.
Do you want to know “where can I get a passport?” To apply for a passport through the normal non-expedited passport process, you will mail your material to National Passport Processing Center in either Philadelphia Pennsylvania or Irving, Texas depending on the state in which you reside. The normal passport process takes six to eight weeks.
