Modesto Passport - Applying for a Passport in Modesto, Ca.

The Modesto passport offices below are places where you can submit an application for a new United States passport. These are not processing centers so your passport will not be delivered to you at these locations. The form and supporting documents will be mailed in for processing. This takes 4 to 6 weeks for routine service and 2 to 3 weeks for expedited service.

Getting a passport faster requires you either schedule an appointment and personally visit the San Francisco Passport Agency or, if you don't have time to do this, employ the services of a registered expediter who can help you get a passport in 24-48 hours.

If you need to find a location to apply in a different city, visit the California passport application acceptance facilities page.

Expedited service may take 2 to 3 weeks from the day an application is submitted to the day a new passport is received. These door-to-door timeframes include both our processing times and mailing times on the front and back end. Delays may be significant so requesting 1-2-day mailing may greatly help.

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).

If you need to travel due to a qualified life-or-death emergency, please call the National Passport Information Center for an appointment.
