Passports

Passport Information

Passport services (new applications, renewals, lost/stolen, and additional pages) and citizenship claims are available during normal business hours on a walk-in basis. All U.S. passport applications are sent to the U.S. for processing, which takes at least two weeks, so please plan your travel accordingly.

Passport applications are now available for downloading or printing. To find out how to do this and to obtain passport applications online, see Passport Application Forms.

Please note that the Consular Section cannot provide photographic services to obtain proper passport photos. Information on the required quality of passport photos can be found by reading Photographic Requirements.
