Indian nationals in the UAE planning to renew their passports should note the newly updated fee structure. Here is a simple breakdown of the current charges.
Updated Passport Renewal Fees
| Service Type | Fee |
|---|---|
| Normal Passport Renewal | AED 477 |
| Tatkal (Fast-Track) Passport Renewal | AED 927 |
These are the official Government of India fees for passport renewal services in the UAE.
Is There Any Fee for Appointment Booking?
No. Booking an appointment through the official portal, consularsevainuae.com, is completely free of cost.
However, if you choose to book your appointment through a private typing office or agent instead of doing it yourself, they may charge you an additional service fee for handling the booking on your behalf. This charge is separate from the government fee and is entirely at the discretion of the typing office.
Good to Know Before You Apply
- Always double-check whether you need normal or Tatkal service before booking, since fees and processing times differ.
- Booking directly on the official website helps you avoid unnecessary agent charges.
- For full details on where to apply and how the new system works, you can refer to our earlier articles:
