As a Schedule C expense?  Or maybe under an accountable plan, if needed exclusively for business.  Of course, at $145 for 10 years, maybe it should be amortized for $15 a year.  After a few years, the EBE deduction might return.

See Payne v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1986-93, 51 T.C.M. (CCH) 579, 582 (1986) (concluding on the facts of that case that a passport fee is a deductible business expense).
