How long to deliver? (TNT tracking??)

Passport was approved on 21st March, printed today, 28th March at 12:40. How long does it take to be registered onto DPD and to get the dispatch email? Could I expect a dispatch email tomorrow?

I received my other 2 children's passports on 21st and 22nd March and just waiting on the third which was printed on 23rd March I have spoken to a very nice TNT man today as still no tracking information and was told they are really busy and they load all of the passports between 9pm-11pm each night and then they are then usually delivered the next day. We travel on 7th April and he said not to worry, it will be here in time 🤞

Vee1983 - my son's was printed on the 23rd still waiting for update. It was approved on the 21st, when was yours approved? We travel on 4th April.

Final update from me as I now have passport in hand! This forum has been very helpful! Passport Received in hand - 3pm Monday 28th March 2022 Passport Tracking on TNT - Thursday 24th March 2022 Passport printed 4:52am on 22 March 2022 Application approved 1:14pm on 17 March 2022 Documents received 6:29am on 15 March 2022 Documents signed for (Royal Mail) 2nd March 2022 Application received 4:23pm on 28 February 2022 Identity details received 4:23pm on 28 February 2022 Email sent to person confirming your identity 9:18am on 23 February 2022 Ask someone to confirm your identity 8:57am on 23 February 2022 Application submitted 8:57am on 23 February 2022

I finally have a tracking date come through for the 30th which i have changed for the 29th. Hope everyone else in the same boat gets theirs soon.

Mine went to printed 23rd March and could only start tracking via TNT website today(28th) at 5pm. It currently says Delivery due 30th March Seems some people get lucky and get it delivered 48 hours after the printing notification but I think just allow 7 days from printing notification and should better alright !

Hi all, has anyone had tracking details for a passport approved on or after 23rd March? My daughter's was approved on 23rd but still no tracking info and when I call HMPO some tell me it went for print on 23rd, others tell me it looks like it hasn't? We travel on Saturday so need it by Friday 1st. So stressful. We applied in December 2021! I've tried using our PEX number and postcode on the TNT website and just get an error message so guess they don't have it yet.

There seems to be a problem with any passports printed around 23 march mine included . There are loads of people on here who haven’t had them yet it’s TNT they don’t appear to have picked them up because no one can track them.

My son's was approved 21st and printed on 23rd, and I have only been able to track since 5.15pm today. It says it's due for delivery tomorrow, so fingers crossed it arrives.

My passport was approved 21/3, I got a notification this morning 28/3 that it had been printed and I’ve looked this evening and my TNT tracking states it will be delivered tomorrow.. so we will see!!

23/03 approved any one?? Please share any update as I'm freaking out about the upcoming events that we should attend. This is so stressful.

Forum has been very helpful. My daughter’s passport was approved on 23/3. I got confirmation that it had been printed yesterday evening, 28/3, so five days. Sounds like printing notification to delivery is up to a week?

it actually looks like the ones from the 23rd either are getting notifications on tracking yesterday or hopefully should get them today

Mine was printed on the 23rd and just came through the door a few mins ago. keep checking today as there is a good chance you will get a notification on TNT

Nb23 - thank you. When did you get your approval and printed notifications?

I don't know what to do because after 7 days still it's showing approved:( Calling them is a nightmare

delivered notification yesterday afternoon, changed delivery date on TNT from 30th to 29th, delivered first thing this morning Passport printed 9:44am on 23 March 2022 Application approved 5:11pm on 18 March 2022

Our passport is out for see delivery today, same as nb83, I'm hoping it turns up soon and they can find our location.

Mine was printed on the 24th of March (Thursday), but I still don't have a TNT tracking number as of mid-day Tuesday. And the application reference number doesn't produce anything on TNT's web site. I'm due to travel for work on Thursday. In theory, I can use my EU ID card + Settled Status. In practice, I tried this last week, and it created all kinds of chaos - with the airlines and with entering and exiting the EU / Schengen border. The UK border, which I thought would be the diciest part, ended up being the easiest! No queue and through in 30 seconds with a smile. Why the EU had a problem with an EU ID card is beyond me. The airlines, I can understand since settled status is the only exception for travel to the UK, and I imagine very few EU nationals in the UK use ID cards except in situations like this, where their passport is being held by another entity. I have this sinking feeling that the passport will come just after I leave for the airport....

It's printed today. Approved 23/3 Printed 29/3 Now I don't know when they'll deliver this !!

My son's passport was printed on 23rd March. Tracking was available from the evening of 28th March and it has been delivered today, 29th March.

Passport received 2.45pm today Printed last Wednesday Holidays are coming. Thanks to all in this forum for your inputs

Can I ask did anyone have theirs done from the Peterborough office and how long it took ? Mine was printed last Thursday but I have no tracking nothing - and according to the helpline it’s 8 days for the passports to be be collected

Eilisha92, my passport was also printed last Thursday at the Peterborough office, and I'm in the same situation. No tracking information. 8 days for the passports to be collected?!?! Argh. I guess I should not get my hopes up about having it anytime soon. Peterborough seems to have been the slowest office to go through.

LAD, I hope that we get some sort of update soon as I’m due to fly next week Saturday, the woman I spoke to said it’s taking currently up to 8 working days and of course the standard rubbish we will place you on a call back
