Planning an overseas family vacation?

Make sure you check that your family’s passports are travel ready, this means that each passport:

  • is free from damage
  • has some blank visa pages
  • is valid for at least 6 months after your trip ends.

If you need a new passport, you should allow at least 6 weeks to receive it.

Need a passport quickly? You might be eligible for one of our faster processing services for an extra fee.

  • in the confirmation email we sent when you created your online application
  • in the ‘Applications created’ section when you log into your AusPassport account.
