When someone asks the question, "How fast can you get a passport," I usually answer with another question: “How quickly do you need to get your passport?” There are several factors that need to be considered when trying to determine how fast a passport application can be processed and the passport delivered to the applicant. The simplest answer is that a passport application can be processed as quickly as the same day. That is, the U.S. Department of State regional passport agencies offer same day passport services for U.S. citizens who need to acquire their travel documents in a hurry, whether the request is for a new passport, renewal, name change or added visa pages. The problem is that the U.S. Department of State requests that applicants schedule an appointment in order to be attended at the regional passport agency. This is a problem because it is often difficult to get through to the automated scheduling service due to the number of incoming calls. This can also be a problem if date your appointment can be scheduled is after your departure date. If scheduling an appointment at a regional agency and waiting the appointment date is not fast enough to get your passport in time for your trip, you have a couple of options to choose from. One, you can visit the regional passport agency without an appointment and hoped they attend you. While there is no guarantee that you will be attended, many travelers have claimed that they were able to submit their passport application even without an appointment. If you arrive in the morning hours and have your documentation in order, you should get your passport that same afternoon. There is a second option available to those who do not want to risk showing up at a regional agency without an appointment or who are unable to travel to the regional U.S. Passport Service Guide – http://www.us-passport-service-guide.com/ HOW FAST CAN YOU GET A PASSPORT? agency’s location. You can apply through a private expediting service and authorize the expediter to represent you before the regional agency. Expediters charge a fee for this service over and above the fees you will pay to the U.S. government. The amount depends on how fast you want to have your passport your application processed. Of course, same day processing costs the most. While all these fees can get quite expensive, it may be necessary when you are in a spot spot. If you need your passport fast but not necessarily on the same day, you can really sa save a lot of money. Just be careful not to underestimate the time needed to processes your application. If time permits, choose a time frame that will get your passport delivered to you with a few days to spare. o Get Your Passport Fast | U.S. Passport Agencies Passport Application Instructions • • • • • • • New Passport Passport Renewal Replace Lost or Stolen Passport Passport for Child Add Visa Pages to Passport Change Name in Passport Travel Visa Information For more information, visit U.S. Passport Service Guide Save on Airfare Secrets is our favorite travel savings resource because it provides insider tips that few have heard of Tony of.
