Important Due to Covid-19, processing times for passports are taking longer than normal for both standard and expedited services.

Applying for a U.S. Passport in Gainesville, FL

Applying for an American passport can be done at one of the Gainesville passport offices or application acceptance facilities in nearby cities that are listed below. An agent at the passport office will witness the signing of the application form so that you can mail it in for processing. Be aware that most acceptance facilities require an appointment so be sure to call or schedule an appointment online before going.

Routine service takes between 8 and 11 weeks to complete. Requesting expedited service can reduce the processing time to up to 7 weeks.

To get a passport more quickly, you will either have to schedule a visit to the Miami Passport Agency or, if no opening is available, get a registered expediter to submit your application for you so that you can get a passport in 24-48 hours.

Passport offices can be found in other Florida cities by visiting our Florida passport application acceptance facilities page.
