Sri Lanka Passport Fee Calculator (Normal, One-Day, Same-Day)

The calculator looks up every rupee figure on the Department of Immigration & Emigration's public "Issue of Passports" fee table and walks the same four steps a DIE cashier would walk when totting up your receipt. The fees themselves are gazetted under the Immigrants and Emigrants Act No. 20 of 1948 (as amended); the Department republishes them in HTML at immigration.gov.lk and that page is the canonical source this tool tracks.

1. Pick the per-applicant issue fee. The published schedule has a 2 × 3 matrix: two service speeds (Normal, One-Day) by three applicant categories (Adult, Child on a 3-year book, Child on a 10-year book). An adult Normal passport is Rs 10,000; an adult One-Day passport is Rs 20,000. A child on a 3-year passport pays Rs 3,000 for Normal and Rs 9,000 for One-Day. A child on the optional 10-year book is charged at the adult rate.
2. Apply any application-type adjustment. A new passport or renewal carries no extra fee. A replacement for a lost passport adds a penalty of Rs 20,000 if the lost book was issued within the last year, or Rs 15,000 after that. A particulars-only alteration (name change, NIC inclusion, profession update, etc.) replaces the issue fee with a flat Rs 1,200 per amendment — no new book is issued.
3. Multiply by group size. A family bundle pays the per-applicant total once per person. The calculator handles up to 10 applicants in one go, on the assumption they all share the same service speed and applicant category. Mixed bundles (e.g. two adults + two children) need two passes — once per category — added together at the end.
4. No postal or courier add-on.The Department covers the dispatch cost of the finished book itself, so the figure on the DIE counter receipt is the final number you pay. There is no separate "special-delivery" charge to add.

The calculator also enforces real-world eligibility: One-Day Service is only available at Suhurupaya (Battaramulla) and at the Jaffna Regional Office. Other regional offices (Kandy, Matara, Vavuniya, Kurunegala, Anuradhapura) offer Normal Service only. If you pick a combination DIE doesn't actually run, the tool flags it in an amber inline note while still showing what the fee would be if you applied at an eligible office.

A second, closed-form formula recomputes the grand total independently of the line-by-line walk. If the two numbers ever disagree by even a rupee, the "DIE verified" badge flips to "Recompute mismatch". That guards against silent breakage when fees are revised — the calculator either matches the source or tells you it doesn't.
