Louise Haigh – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Louise Haigh on 2015-10-29.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will reduce the cost of an application for a certificate of travel to the same levels as for a convention travel document.
James Brokenshire
The estimated cost of processing a certificate of travel is currently £382 for those over the age of 16 and £244 for those under the age of 16.
Fees for applications for certificates of travel reflect estimated processing costs. The Geneva Convention requires that Convention Travel Document fees must not exceed those for UK passports. Immigration and nationality fees are reviewed and updated annually and reflect changes in estimated costs and passport fees.
