The fees are a lot higher than those charged by the United Kingdom Passport Agency. That is British government policy.

The way I read it the fees have come down.

With postage they are now $205, which is less than the old scale.

Did I get that right?

I believe he said last time it came down in price, it was because of the exchange rate.

Thanks for the info Dean, as I need to renew mine.
