THE government Wednesday moved to greenlight increased passport fees in a move which will see many struggling Zimbabweans finding it difficult to obtain the essential document.
Ordinary applications will now cost US$170 while emergency ones will be charged US$270, both charges being inclusive of a US$20 Quick Response (QR) expense effective New Year’s Day.
Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube had initially presented to Parliament, plans to hike passport fees from the already steep US$120 to US$200 for an ordinary application and a US$80 hike to US$300 for emergency ones.
His plans were resisted by already struggling Zimbabweans.
Hundreds, eager to leave Zimbabwe, flocked to Passport Centres across the country to beat Ncube’s assumed January 1 deadline.
