Pending parliamentary review and completion of the regulatory process, the new fee structure and the 10-year ePassport should come into effect in 2013.

At this time, it is too early to provide the exact date when the 10-year ePassport and accompanying new fees will become available, other than to say that it will likely be in the spring of 2013.
