As 2026 begins, citizens of Trinidad and Tobago are feeling the impact of revised government fees for immigration and firearm-related services. The changes, issued by the Ministry of Homeland Security, affect services widely used by the public. The updated fee structure includes increased costs for standard and business passports, as well as for lost or replacement passports. Firearm-related licenses and permits have also seen a rise in their fees. These changes have sparked concerns among citizens about the added financial strain, particularly at the start of the year. Amid these changes, there’s a renewed discussion around affordability, transparency, and the real-life impact of policy decisions on everyday citizens.
