There is an increasing trend for adult passports to be valid for ten years, such as a United Kingdom passport, United States Passport, New Zealand Passport (after 30 November 2015) or Australian passport. A five year period of validity is also common as used to be the situation for a Papua New Guinean passport.
Some countries issue adult passports for periods between five and ten years, such as the Cuban passport, which is valid for six years.
Unless otherwise limited, US adult passports in the late 20th century used to expire three years after their issue date, or after 5 years if they had been renewed.

Some countries allow adult applicants to choose a passport validity, usually 5 or 10 years, at a varying price scale, e.g. costing more for 10 years than 5 years. These countries include Canada, Hungary, Japan, Mexico (1, 3, 6, or 10), Pakistan, Russia, South Korea, Turkey and Bangladesh.
