Description

Australias passport fees are set to rise in January 2026, with a potential increase of $5 to $10 for a 10-year adult passport, now priced at $412. Five-year passports for children and adults over 75 may also see a similar hike. The Australian passport, known for its advanced technology and security, offers visa-free travel to over 180 countries. However, its currently the most expensive globally, with a 162-dollar increase over the past decade. This fee hike, along with higher flight costs due to Australias isolated location and a weaker Australian dollar, adds to the overall expense of international travel for Australians.
