Below is a list of places where you can apply for new U.S. passports in Detroit, Michigan and nearby cities.

You only need to visit a an application acceptance facility if you are applying for a new passport or replacing one that has been lost, stolen or damaged. Be sure to call first since many offices require an appointment. Appointments can be scheduled online of applying at a post office location. You can send your application by mail if you meet the criteria for a passport renewal.

UPDATE: Mailing delays are impacting passport processing. The Department of State's processing times begin when applications are received at a passport agency or center and not when you mail them or apply at a local acceptance facility. Standard service may take between 6 and 9 weeks. This timeframe does not include delivery time. Mailing times vary across the country.

Expedited service takes from 3 to 5 weeks exluding mailing times on the front and back end. Mailing delays may be significant so requesting 1-2-day mailing may greatly help.
