Renew from where you live
Choose your country guide
The renewal service is worldwide. These guides explain collection, local document considerations and the application journey from the countries we support most often.
A recent adult passport and an older passport record can need different services. Check the issue year in your last passport, then choose the appropriate option below. Both services include expert checking, government fees and courier collection and return. ASAP’s specialists take care of the application from start to finish.
For British citizens overseas with an expired or expiring UK passport. Check the issue year and tell us about any changed details, missing passport or booked travel so you can choose the appropriate service.
Prepare your application
A straightforward place to start
For a straightforward adult renewal, most of the work begins with four things. We confirm anything additional before submission.
Step 1
Your most recent British passport, even if expired.
Send it even if it expired many years ago. HM Passport Office uses your previous passport to verify your identity and passport history.
Step 2
A recent digital photo, which we check.
Upload a recent digital photo through the guided application. We check it against UK passport standards before anything is submitted.
Step 3
Details of any change to your name or personal details.
Name changes, dual citizenship or unusual passport history can require additional evidence. We identify what applies to your case before submission.
Step 4
Your collection address and travel date.
DHL Express can collect your passport and documents where required, or you can use the prepaid drop-off option we provide.
The promise
A deadline we stand behind
Eligible VIP adult renewals are 2 weeks or less, guaranteed. Eligible Gold renewals, replacements, child renewals and name changes are 3 weeks or less, guaranteed.
The time includes the courier journey. It runs from DHL Express collection of your complete, correct document pack to the first attempted delivery of your new passport. If we miss your eligible deadline, we refund the full service price under our guarantee.
↻First passport applications are around 4 weeks on a best-endeavours basis and are not covered by the turnaround guarantee.

Travel rule
Planning a trip to the UK?
If you hold more than one nationality, check which documents you will use before you travel. An expired British passport is worth sorting out before it becomes a last-minute problem. Read our guide for British dual citizens, or ask ASAP about renewing or getting your first British passport.
“When the recent UK entry rules changed for people who have dual citizenship, weeks before we were due to travel, we knew we would be at risk of not having a British passport in time. We googled and found ASAP passports. We enquired online and within a couple of hours Jacob called us, despite it being well after business hours. He was thorough, informative and empathetic to our situation. He talked us through the options and after we decided to move forward, he supported us through the process (including finding old expired passport history, birth certificates etc). Jacob kept us updated the whole way and even after the passport was delivered he checked in to make sure all was ok. Customer service is often non existent these days even when paying a premium, but in this instance the expense was 100% worth it. Highly recommend.”

How fast can I renew my UK passport from overseas?+
VIP adult renewals: 2 weeks or less, guaranteed, from the moment DHL Express collects your document pack. Gold: 3 weeks or less, guaranteed. We confirm your eligibility before you pay. Apply directly from overseas instead, and you can wait considerably longer with nobody in the UK moving it along.
What happens if my last passport was issued before 2002?+
You do not qualify for VIP. If it was issued between 1994 and 2001, Gold applies at £799, 3 weeks or less, guaranteed. If it was issued before 1994, or your passport history is unclear, it is treated as a first-time application at £1,499, around 4 weeks on a best-endeavours basis.
Do I still need to send my old passport if it expired years ago?+
Yes. HM Passport Office uses your previous passport to help verify your identity and passport history, even if it expired years ago. We return it to you along with your new one.
When does the 2-week guarantee start?+
When DHL Express collects your complete document pack and/or passport from you. It does not start at payment if your documents have not yet been provided.
What if I am a dual citizen and have been travelling on my other passport?+
If you are a British citizen or dual national travelling to the UK, you may not be able to rely on a foreign passport alone. Start the renewal before you travel rather than discovering the problem at check-in. We will also confirm whether any of your foreign documents are needed for the application.
My name has changed since my last passport. Can I still use this service?+
A name or details change is its own service rather than a renewal, because passports cannot be amended — a new one has to be issued. It is £799, 3 weeks or less, guaranteed. See name or details change.
What if my passport was lost, stolen or damaged rather than expired?+
That is our replacement service: £799, 3 weeks or less, guaranteed, where your last UK passport was issued from 2002 onwards. See replace a lost, stolen or damaged passport.
Are you GOV.UK or HM Passport Office?+
No. ASAP Passports is an independent UK company and a registered UK passport agent. Your passport is still issued by HM Passport Office. We check your documents before submission, work directly with HM Passport Office to facilitate your application, and coordinate secure return delivery.
What is included in the price, and are there extras?+
The service price includes ASAP’s help, HM Passport Office fees, DHL Express collection and return delivery. A card processing fee is shown separately at checkout. If an official certificate needs to be obtained, we explain and agree that additional cost first.
