Passport renewal

Bisto · May 7, 2018, 1:41pm

15 working days for first timer apparently. .I thought renewals could now be done online?

Best of luck. They lost the docs for my kid. I’m waiting three and a half months. “Supposed” to get it this week.

Faldo · May 7, 2018, 2:45pm

She’s under 18

carryharry · May 7, 2018, 3:44pm

If done online, 7 working days.

balbec · May 7, 2018, 3:51pm

Only for over 18’s

Renewed my Passport online at 1pm last Thursday, received paper passport in the post this morning.
Seriously impressed.

Online works very well in fairness.

Mullach_Ide · July 9, 2018, 8:49pm

It really does, credit where it’s due.

carryharry · July 9, 2018, 9:36pm

You’d want your head examined doing it any other way.

TreatyStones · July 9, 2018, 10:08pm

That’s because it was a Limerick company that set it up

balbec · October 9, 2018, 3:40pm

Sent in an application for the passport card Monday last week. Got the card back in the post today. Great service in fairness.

TheUlteriorMotive · October 9, 2018, 3:48pm

The card’s usefulness is becoming limited as more and more border controls use automatic gates which the card does not work at.

It’s a disgrace truth be told.

Tassotti · October 9, 2018, 3:50pm

yeah, only good for flights to the mainland now

Fagan_ODowd · October 9, 2018, 3:53pm

Informative rating

balbec · October 9, 2018, 6:09pm

In Europe?

anon61878697 · October 9, 2018, 6:16pm

You mug.

balbec · October 9, 2018, 6:22pm

It won’t work in the states but it will work in most of Europe. Handy to have.

anon61878697 · October 9, 2018, 6:24pm

Youre bolloxed.

TheUlteriorMotive · October 9, 2018, 6:26pm

Yeah. Malaga, Faro, London City and Dublin four recent examples of passport gates where it won’t work. You’d need then to queue up for a lad on a desk like in a 1990s bank.
