Passport Applications Update

Please be advised: the Department of State has announced longer processing times for passport applications due to high demand, and ahead of what is predicted to be an incredibly busy travel season. Please submit applications as soon as possible.  

The Department of State is hosting special passport fairs across the United States to help you and your family apply for your passport. Most events are for first-time customers and children using Form DS-11 to apply. View a list of upcoming events near you here.

If you are eligible to renew your passport, you should renew by mail. For more info, visit travel.state.gov/passports.
