Applying for a New Passport

To obtain a new passport book or card, you will need:

Renewing Your Passport

To obtain a renewal, you will need:

  • A completed application form DS-82
  • Old passport
  • Passport photo

If your passport has been expired for 5 or more years, you need a new passport, and it is not a "renewal."

Passports for Children Under 16

Applicant must be present. Applications for children 4 and under must provide their own photos. Parents apply on behalf of the child; both parents must sign application in the presence of an agent or they must present a notarized Statement of Consent form or a notarized statement of why the second parent could not attend. 

Statement of Consent Form should include the child's full name, birth date, and name of consenting parent and a photocopy of the front and back of the non-appearing parents identification. Learn more from the Department of State about obtaining and renewing passports for children under 16.

Applicants Age 16 to 17

Applicants age 16 to 17 go through a different process from children 16 and under. Visit the Department of State for more information about applying for a passport for this age group.
