Expert Tips to Accelerate the Passport Process
- Emergency criteria: Life-or-death and urgent travel appointment slots require proof; bring documentation.
- Book early: Regional passport agency appointment availability changes. You may have to check multiple times per day if needed.
- Consider a courier: If you can't secure an appointment, a registered expediter may be your fastest option (additional fees may be less than the cost to vist an agency on your own).
- Budget correctly: Passport fees + the expediting fee + shipping costs + any courier fees OR the costs to visit a regional agency on your own.
- Prevent delays: Double-check your form, photo, and payment details.
