The federal government is taking action to make life simpler and more convenient by modernizing the Passport Program. We’re providing all eligible adult Canada with secure and user-friendly online passport renewal services to make renewal easier and faster. We have also expanded digital options to improve accessibility for people who may have difficulty travelling to a physical service location.
