How can I get a passport on Saturday?

Question: My passport expired. I got a chance to work and need to travel tomorrow. Is it possible to get a passport on Saturday?

Answer: Unfortunately, there is no place to get your passport on Saturday. The Regional Passport Agencies that attend applicants who need to obtain a passport within two weeks or less are only open on Monday to Friday.

The hours of the San Francisco Agency are from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. While you are supposed to make an appointment by calling the National Passport Information Center, some people were able to submit applications without one.

If you still need to get your passport on Monday, you can arrive at the agency when it opens. If you meet all the requirements, then you should be able to get your passport the same day.
