How much is paid for some of the most expensive passports in the world?

Whether you want to start a new life abroad or just take a vacation abroad, getting a new passport can be an expensive endeavor.

Once you have gathered all your documents and gone through whatever bureaucratic queues your country has, you will normally be able to have your passport in hand within a few weeks or months.

But at what cost? These are some of the most expensive passports in the world. The following costs are in local currencies and US dollars for adult passports lasting 10 years, unless otherwise specified. Currency conversions have been approximate since the beginning of May 2022.

Average price costs

While many passports cost around $ 100 to $ 160, this is not a small price to pay. However, even more expensive ones will come. Regardless of whether they renew or buy a passport for the first time, Japanese citizens can expect to pay 16,000 Japanese yen (about $ 125).

In New Zealand people can expect to pay $ 191 NZD (about $ 125) for their new passport. Purchasing a U.S. adult passport for the first time will cost at least $ 165, while renewals cost $ 130.

For British citizens looking to visit more sunny destinations, renewing a UK passport online will cost 75 75.50 (about $ 95 or € 90). For most immigrants living abroad, the renovation will cost a standard standard fee and courier fee of around 6 106 (about $ 135 or € 125).

Including the postage, about 145 Swiss francs (about $ 150 or 140 euros) will be returned to Swiss citizens. If you are not shaking from the shock of the posters, take a look at what some of the most expensive passports cost for citizens who want to travel abroad:

Mexican passport (3,505 MXN or about $ 170)

Renewing a passport in Mexico costs 3,505 Mexican pesos (about $ 170).

Liechtenstein passport (CHF 256 or about $ 260)

Cuban passport (6,500 CUP or about $ 270 for 10 years)

The process of renewing a Cuban passport is different from that of the others on this list.

Each renewal will cost an additional 500 CUP, up to the sixth year of the passport life, where the process of purchasing a new passport resumes.

Syrian passport ($ 600 for 10 years)

The Syrian passport is one of the least powerful passports and at the same time one of the most expensive.

Over 10 years, holding a valid Syrian passport will cost at least $ 600.
