The performance of Her Majesty’s Passport Office’s supplier for UK secure delivery services, FedEx (the parent company of TNT), is measured against a 24-hour service level for urgent services, or a 48-hour service level for standard applications, only.

The attached table provides the data of unsuccessful deliveries against these service levels between January and October 2021:
