Baton Rouge Passport - Where to Apply for a Passport in Baton Rouge, La.

Only six passport offices exist in Baton Rouge where citizens of the United States can apply for new passports so we have included facilities from nearby cities. Addresses and telephone numbers are provided below. Most passport offices require an appointment. Please call or set one up online before visiting. For a list of acceptance facilities in cities other than Baton Rouge, visit the Louisiana passport office page.

Applications for a new passport (Form DS-11) should be taken to a nearby passport application acceptance facility so that an agent can witness your signature. Applications for other passport services - renewals, name change, corrections, etc. - can be made by mail.

Currently, processing time is estimated to take up to 6 weeks for standard service. Individuals who request and pay for expedited processing at an application acceptance facility can expect to get their passports in 2 to 3 weeks. To get a passport faster, it is necessary to schedule an appointment at the New Olreans passport agency or employ the services of a registered expediter such as Rush My Passport - Online Passport Service.

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).
