Courier and Expeditor Companies
Courier companies, also known as "passport expeditors," are private companies, some of which are allowed to submit passport applications on behalf of customers.
Thinking of using a courier company? Here are a few things you should know:
These companies do not operate as part of the U.S. Department of State.
You will not receive your passport any faster than you would if you applied in person at a Passport Agency.
Courier companies charge additional fees for their services.
You are still required to appear in person at an acceptance facility if applying on Form DS-11, even when using a courier service.
Photos and Passport Application Processing
The Clerk's office acts as an agent for the federal government in processing passport applications. Passport applications are mailed by the clerk on the same day they are received. Some countries require a VISA for entry. It is necessary to have physical possession of a passport before applying for a VISA. Go to www.travel.state.gov to learn more about how to get a VISA.
Processing Options
Processing times begin the day U.S. Department of State Passport Services receive an application at a passport agency or center, not on the day you applied for a passport at the Clerk’s office. Mail times may vary across the country.
