How much does it cost to get a passport?

How much does it cost to get a UK passport updated after getting married?

• I just got my first passport this week, the standard £72 one, and I plan on travelling abroad twice before next Summer But then next Summer I'm getting married, and I want to take on my husband-to-be's surname Does anybody know how much it will cost to get the name changed on my passport? Will it just be another £72 or will it be cheaper, if that's all I want to change? It's a UK passport. Thanks!

  hi! i remember it costing slightly less than the full price, but you dont get a new one you have the same expiry date.however i dont think they do that anymore i think it is the full £72-.but you cant change it until after you are married-so not in time for your honeymoon! you can keep travelling on it as long as you book tickets in your maiden name.. its so expensive though, esp when you just got a new one... have a good year ahead, sound busy!
