Important Due to Covid-19, processing times for passports may take up to 18 weeks for routine service and 12 weeks for expedited processing.

Anchorage Passport Acceptance Facility List

The only location in Anchorage to apply for a U.S. passport is listed below along with facilities in nearby cities and towns. For more options, visit the complete list of Alaska application acceptance facilities. Be aware that passport offices have restricted operating hours and most require applicants to schedule an appointment. Phone numbers are listed so that you can call. For post office locations, you may schedule an appointment online.

Getting a new passport requires you to submit a completed Form DS-11, a recent passport photo, proof of U.S. citizenship, identification document and a copy of the ID. Evidence of a legal name change is also required if your name has been changed by marriage, divorce, adoption or court order.

Passport applications are processed by routine service in 6 and 8 weeks unless you request expedited services. In this case, processing time can be reduced to 2 or 3 weeks. If you have an emergency and need to get a passport faster, you can either schedule an appointment at the nearest processing center which is the Seattle passport agency. If you are unable to travel to one of these agencies, you can employ the services of a registered courier service such as Rush My Passport.

COVID-19 UPDATE: Standard processing takes 10 to 12 weeks to complete. If you pay the additional $60 for expedited service, you will receive your passport in 4 to 6 weeks.

Regional passport agencies are offering extremely limited in-person services if you need to travel internationally in the next 72 hours. Those with qualified life-or-death emergencies are prioritized.

Life-or-death emergencies are serious illnesses, injuries, or deaths in your immediate family (parent, legal guardian, child, spouse, sibling, and grandparent) that require you to travel outside the United States within 72 hours (3 business days).
