Passport Services

Passport Services are by appointment only. Book your appointment.

As a passport acceptance agency, we process applications for initial passports and minor renewals only. If you need an adult renewal, this is accomplished via the U.S. Mail. Check here for processing times.

If you have an emergency travel need (72 hours), learn how to get your passport fast.

There is an additional U.S. Government fee to expedite your application.

Important Information

The federal government has extended the deadline for REAL ID to May 7, 2025. As of that date, standard state-issued driver’s licenses and identification cards will no longer be accepted to board domestic flights within the United States, or when entering certain federal facilities. Learn more at the State of Michigan REAL ID page.

Passport Appointment Checklist

All applications require a new passport photo. We offer photo services for $15. We recommend wearing a dark shirt or jacket. Light colors do not work well with our equipment.

Please note: The U.S. Department of State does not allow you to wear logos or camouflage in your photograph.

All applications require a check or money order;  the U.S. Department of State will only accept these forms of payment.

Important: If you’re submitting applications for more than one individual, a separate check or money order is required for each applicant.

The U.S. Department of State fee schedule can be found below.

Please note: Payments to the Clerk’s Office – for services such as photo processing, application handling fees, and copying services – must be made separately from payments to the U.S. Department of State.
