  4. If either Parent is deceased the other parent must submit an original Death Certificate with the passport application.

US Government Filing Fee

This is the fee the State Department charges you when they issue your passport. You are issuing your passport quickly so their fee is higher than normal. The Standard fee for an adult expedited passport is $165.00. This fee includes a witnessing fee of $25 to be given directly to the witnessing agent. Our service fee is additional to the government fee.

The State Department will not accept Personal or Business issued checks that are starter checks and they will only accept checks from the applicant or family member, or from business checks with affiliation to applicant. The Check must have the account holders full name and address and the applicant's full name and date of birth.

Proof of Departure

The US State Department requests that you provide with your application proof of your upcoming departure date. Please include this with your application.

(If you don’t have confirmation of your trip yet please let us know in advance)

EXAMPLES:

Print-out of online booking reservations from an airline reservations system or travel agency. It must have your name and International destination and departure date on it
