Passports
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make an assessment of the adequacy of waiting times at the Passport Office.
Answered by Seema Malhotra
His Majesty’s Passport Office consistently exceeds the performance indicator for its standard service within the UK, with over 98.5% of customers receiving their passport within three weeks where no further information is required.
Information about the performance of HM Passport Office can be found within the latest transparency data release, at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/passports-and-citizenship-data-q4-2024.
