This service requires an appointment.
IMPORTANT: The names of all non-applicants who plan to accompany the applicant to the Embassy (such as parents who must appear with their child who is under 16 or other minor siblings) should be listed in the box provided on the appointment form.
Passport applicants are required to utilize the online Passport Wizard. You should ensure all applicable data fields are completed, print the form, and bring to your appointment with other required documents. Do not sign the application until your interview with a Consular Officer.
Forms
All applicants age 15 and under must complete and bring Form DS-11.
Passports for Children
All children must appear in person. Parents must sign the passport application for all children under age 16. The child’s birth certificate, parents’ or guardians’ own passports or other legal identification, and a copy of the court-ordered guardianship, if applicable, are required. If the old passport contains a baby photo, you will need to present progression photos to verify identity of the applicant.
If one parent is unavailable to appear at the Embassy, an original, notarized Statement of Consent is required, along with a copy of the absent parent’s signed photo identification, which was presented to the notary. The Statement of Consent is only valid for a period of 90 days.
