Who Are These Events For?

These events are designed for first-time applicants and for children, both of whom must apply using Form DS-11.
If you are eligible to renew your passport using Form DS-82, you can do so conveniently by mail or through online assistance services like ours.

Why Attend a Passport Fair?

  • Extended hours: Attend after work or on weekends without interrupting your daily routine.

  • Walk-in access: Many locations do not require an appointment.

  • On-site support: Staff is available to assist you in completing your application correctly.

What About Processing Time?

Applicants can choose either routine service (processing in 4–6 weeks) or expedited service, which typically takes around 2–3 weeks after an additional $60 fee.


Passport Acceptance Fairs are a convenient way to apply without taking time off from work or school.
