The time it takes to receive a passport after application varies by country and service type. In the UK, it usually takes up to 3 weeks for standard service, with possible longer waits if additional information or an interview is required. In the US, routine passport processing takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service can take 2 to 3 weeks. In Germany, standard passport processing can take 7 to 8 weeks, with express options available that reduce the wait to 4-5 days, but overall naturalization and processing delays can extend this significantly. In Australia, priority and fast track services can process passports in 2 to 5 business days after receiving complete applications, with standard times being longer. Other countries have varying timelines, for example, Tanzania can take about 8-10 weeks.
Would it be helpful to provide specifics for a particular country or additional details on expedited options?
