    Why

    1. The fee decree 96/2026 lists a rapid passport at 67 euros and an electronic rapid passport application at 61 euros.
    2. The same decree lists an express passport at 87 euros, or 81 euros online.
    3. A temporary passport costs 83 euros under the decree.

    Details

    A standard passport costs 48 euros in person or 42 euros online. Delivery times for rapid and express passports depend on when you apply and on the pick-up point.

    Tip

    Check the passport you already have a few months before a trip. An ordinary application is the cheapest way and usually fast enough.

    What may differ

    A temporary passport is meant for sudden situations, for example when the passport is lost right before departure, and it may not be accepted for entry into all countries.

    Common misconception

    The fastest way to get a passport is to queue at the police station.

    What actually happens

    The speed depends on the passport type you order, and online applications are cheaper for every type.
