Expedited passport service is necessary when you need to accelerate the application process which normally takes 4-6 weeks. There are different options available for applicants who need to expedite their passport application. The one you choose depends on how quickly you need to obtain your travel document. This article will examine expedited passport service to help you discover how fast you can get a passport.<\/p>\n

If you are applying for a renewal, name change or additional visa pages by mail, you can request expedited service. You can also make this request when applying for a new passport through an application acceptance facility. This will reduce the processing time to 2-3 weeks.<\/p>\n

When you need to get your passport in less than 2 weeks, you have to either visit a regional agency or contract a private expediter. If you schedule an appointment and submit your application at the regional agency, you can get your passport the same day.<\/p>\n

Applicants who need to get a passport fast but cannot travel to a regional agency, need to apply through a private expediter. Expediters offer different processing times. You have the option of requesting passport processing in 11+ business days, 8-10 business days, 5-7 business days, 3-4 business days, 2 business days and the same day.<\/p>\n

The fees you pay depend on the service you request. There is a passport fee for a new passport, renewals and child’s passport. An execution fee is paid when applying for a new passport. There is a fee for expedited service that is also paid to the State Department. Fees paid to private expediters can vary from approximately $ 65 to $ 249 or more.<\/p>\n

The best thing is to get your passport well In advance of your trip and avoid these extra fees. When that is not possible and you run the risk of having to cancel your travel plans, expedited passport service can be a good investment. <\/p>\n
