Planning a getaway? You might want to get your paperwork in order sooner rather than later! ✈️
The Canadian government has announced that passport fees are heading north starting March 31. Under the new plan, costs will be tied to inflation, meaning a 10-year passport will now set you back $164.32 if you’re applying within Canada. If you’re abroad, expect to pay around $267.
The reason? The government says the old fees just aren’t covering the “true cost” of operations anymore. While it’s never fun to pay more, look at the bright side: it’s still your golden ticket to the world! If yours is expiring soon, beat the hike and renew this month. Your future self (and your wallet) will definitely thank you while you’re sipping a drink on a beach somewhere! 🌴☀️
