Amharc ar fhreagraWith regard to the specific application about which the Deputy has enquired, this application is within the current turnaround times and has not yet reached its issue by date. The turnaround time for Post Passport applications is 8 weeks.
The public offices of the Passport Service in Dublin 2 and in Cork operate a four-day Urgent Appointment service for renewal applicants. The Dublin office also offers a one-day Urgent Appointment service. Applicants who have already submitted a Post Passport application can book an urgent appointment and visit the Passport Service office to apply for a passport. Once a passport has been issued, their original application will be cancelled and the fee will be refunded. Further information on the Urgent Appointment service is available at www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/passports/urgent-appointment/
