  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order amends the Consular Fees (No. 2) Order 1999 in order to increase certain passport fees: Fee 12(a)(i) from £30 to £32.50; Fee 12(a)(ii) from £16 to £19; Fee 12(b)(i) from £60 to £62.50; Fee 12(b)(ii) from £46 to £49; Fee 12(b)(iii) from £75 to £77.50; Fee 12(b)(iv) from £61 to £64; Fee 12(c)(i) from £49 to £53.70; Fee 12(c)(ii) from £29 to £34.50; Fee 13(c) from £60 to £64.20; Fee 15(a) from £18 to £22.50; Fee 15(b)(i) from £48 to £52.50; Fee 15(b)(ii) from £63 to £67.50; Fee 15(c) from £40 to £45; and Fee 19 from £30 to £33.90. The Order also decreases certain other passport fees: Fee 13(a) from £40 to £39; Fee 13(b)(i) from £70 to £69; Fee 13(b)(ii) from £85 to £84; Fee 14(a) from £42 to £39; and Fee 14(b) from £57 to £54. The Order clarifies that, with the exception of applications for a collective passport under Fee 14, passport applications made in person in the UK (under subparagraph (b) of each Fee) may only be made using the fast-track or premium services. Fee 16A is deleted in consequence. Finally, the definition of “replacement passport” in the Consular Fees (No. 2) Order 1999 has been deleted as redundant.",
