American citizens in San Francisco can get a passport application expedited in only three weeks to as quickly as the same day. Applicants who need a new passport (Form DS-11) but can wait up to three weeks, should apply for expedited service at an application acceptance facility. Since most facilities require appointments which are difficult to get and can lengthen the time to get a passport, we have included a list of those that are in or near San Francisco that accept walk-ins. Please call to verify hours.
High demand and mailing delays are impacting how long it takes to get a passport.
NOTE: Processing times begin when applications are received at a passport agency or center. Requesting 1-2-day mailing service is recommended.
