How to renew an Australian Passport using a PC7 Form
Check that you are eligible to use this form to renew your passport.
The PC7 form cannot be used to renew a passport that has expired for more than three (3) years. If you received a PC7, it is valid only until the date shown at the top of the form.
Before lodging your application:
• Check that all pre-completed details on the form are correct. If changes are needed to the name field or personal details in Section 2, you will need to contact the Embassy to obtain the extended Form PC8 or you can complete one online at www.passports.gov.au.
• Check the pre-printed address at the top of the form. If changes are needed to the address, neatly cross through the pre-printed address and write the correct address in black ink to the right. This will be the address for delivery of the replacement passport.
• Complete the remaining sections in BLACK INK and sign and date the form attesting that all the information is correct.
• Obtain two recent colour photographs (not more than than six |6| months old and in full colour) that meet the size requirements stated on the form. Please write your name neatly on the back of one photo in black ink pen. A summary of photo specifications is on the form. Please verify the passport photo guide you can print and take with you to the photographer.
