All guides
Expedited passport
From +$60 mail expediting to same-day agency service — real routes, real timelines.

USPS scheduler, facility walk-ins, agency phone line — three different systems, explained.
Walk-in offices
Yes, they exist — mostly outside the post office system.
Passport fees
The government never shows one total. Here it is.
Processing times
Routine, expedited, agency — and the mailing weeks nobody counts.
Post office passports
Two-thirds of all acceptance facilities are USPS — here is how their system works.
Regional agencies
All 27 urgent-travel locations, appointment rules included.
Why this site exists
The official locator shows you dots on a map; the fee schedule lives on another site; appointment rules on a third. We merged the State Department's complete facility database with verified 2026 fees and plain-English process guides — and nothing else. We are not the government, we don't book appointments, and we don't sell expediting. Every data point links back to its official source.
