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

St. Paul Passport - Where to Apply for a Passport in St. Paul, Mn.

Less than 5 passport offices exist in St. Paul where American citizens can apply for passports so we included a few others located nearby. Locations and telephone numbers are listed below. Most application acceptance facilities require an appointment. Please call or schedule an appointment before visiting. For a list of acceptance facilities in cities other than St. Paul, visit the Minnesota passport office page.

Standard processing takes between 8 to 11 weeks. You can get your passport in 5 to 7 weeks if you request expedited service. You have to schedule an appointment at the regional agency to get your travel document in less than 2 weeks. If you need your passport fast but cannot visit the regional agency, you can apply through a registered expediter such as Rush My Passport - Online Passport Service.

UPDATE: Mailing delays and high demand 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 10 and 13 weeks. This timeframe does not include delivery time. Mailing times vary across the country.

Expedited service takes from 7 to 9 weeks excluding mailing times on the front and back end. Current mailing delays are significant. Requesting 1-2-day mailing service is recommended.

Regional passport agencies are offering two types of appointments: Life-of-Death Emergency Service and Urgent Travel Service.

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 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:

Mondays through Fridays 8 A.M. to 8 P.M. ET, call 1-877-487-2778 (TDD/TTY:1-888-874-7793) Outside of these hours, call 202-647-4000.

For Urgent Travel Service, you need to call 14 days before your scheduled international travel or 28 days if you also need to secure a foreign visa.

If you need to travel urgently for reasons other than a life-or-death emergency, please call the NPIC at 1-877-487-2778 Mondays through Fridays 8 A.M. to 10 P.M. ET.
