Effective April 1, 2021, the Consular Section will use the U.S. Dollar to UAE Dirham exchange rate of $1 USD to 3.70 Emirati Dirhams (formerly $1 USD to 3.69 AED). The consular cashier accepts payments in USD or AED via cash or credit card. An updated list of fees reflecting the new exchange rate is below.
| Passport fees | USD | AED |
|---|---|---|
| Minor passport | $ 115 | 426 |
| Adult passport | $ 110 | 407 |
| Execution fee | $ 35 | 130 |
| Passport Card Adult | $ 30 | 111 |
| Passport Card Child | $ 15 | 56 |
| Report of birth | $ 100 | 370 |
| First adult Passport | $ 145 | 537 |

Customers applying with the DS-11 form at a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad pay two separate fees: an application fee to the U.S. Department of State and the execution fee to the Passport Acceptance Facility (such as a post office in the United States or a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad). Accordingly, the total passport fee for such applicants will increase by $10 in total.
The $10 fee increase does not apply to adults eligible to renew their passport using the DS-82 form. The Department of State published a Final Rule confirming this fee change on January 31, 2018.
