Passport expiring soon? Did you know it is faster to renew your U.S. Adult Passport by mail?    

If you are over 16 years old and you need to renew your U.S. passport you can save time by taking advantage of our Adult Passport Renewal by Mail service.  

 

You may renew your passport by mail if you meet ALL of the following requirements:

 

Your most recent U.S Passport:

·         Is undamaged and can be submitted with your application;

·         Was issued within the last 15 years;

·         Was issued with 10 year validity; and

·         Was issued in your current name or you have changed your name since your passport was issued and can submit legal documentation (e.g. marriage certificate, Change of Name Deed) to prove this change.

 

If your most recent U.S. passport does not meet all these requirements, please follow the instructions here.

 

If you are eligible to apply for the passport renewal by mail, we recommend you use this service.  Appointments are limited and are reserved for those who are required to apply in person. Click here for information on how to use the passport by mail service.
