Passports
How long does it take for the Barbados Immigration Service to issue my Passport once I have made an application?
| Application type | Fee | Processing time |
|---|---|---|
| Adults (16 years of age and over) | $150 | Within 10 working days |
| Children (under 16 years of age) | $100 | Within 10 working days |
| Urgent passport (whether for a child or an adult) | $300 | Within 24 hours |
| Urgent passport (whether for a child or an adult) | $225 | Within 2-5 working days |
Overseas applicants can expect longer processing times due to postage. Apart from the additional time needed for transmission of the application by post, and return of the newly issued passport by post to the applicant, passport applications from overseas are generally processed and dispatched for return in about 10 days once the application reaches the Immigration Department.
