Special Passport Acceptance Fairs

Looking for a personalized experience when applying for your passport for the first time? We offer ongoing special events where you can apply in person on evenings and weekends.

These events are for first-time customers and children who must apply in person using Form DS-11. Adults who are eligible to renew a passport using Form DS-82 can submit the application online or by mail at any time.

Upcoming events

Check out the list of upcoming events below. Expand each monthly events tab and use the search tool at the top to find an event near you. We order the events by date and alphabetize them by state. We add new events each week. 

Can't find a special event near you?

Some passport acceptance facilities are always open on the weekends. You can locate a facility near you by using our Acceptance Facility Search Tool.

Processing times

Passport acceptance facilities only offer routine and expedited service. The facilities do not issue passports. Each facility mails your application to the U.S. Department of State. 

If you need a passport for urgent travel in less than two weeks, make an appointment at one of our 26 passport agencies or centers.
