IF YOU NEED YOUR NEW PASSPORT IN A HURRY:

Our office is an official Passport Acceptance Facility, just like many post offices. The fastest service any local Passport Acceptance Facility can offer is “Expedited Service”, which currently allows you to receive your passport within 4-6 weeks (for an additional $60 fee). If your travel plans require a new passport sooner than six weeks, you will likely need to go instead to a regional Passport Agency (instead of a local Passport Acceptance Facility like us) – the nearest Passport Agencies are in Washington, DC or Atlanta, GA, and appointments are required.

For more information, we urge you to always consult the Department of State’s official webpage travel.state.gov
Other websites can be misleading and sell unnecessary “expediting” services. Here is the Department of State’s webpage for getting a passport in a hurry: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/get-fast.html

You can also contact the Department of State’s official National Passport Information Center (NPIC) toll free at 1-877-487-2778 (TDD: 1-888-874-7793) or by email at NPIC@state.gov

Accessibility

If you require disability-related accommodations for your passport appointment, please contact passport-services@ncsu.edu or 919-515-2249 to arrange services. Early requests are strongly encouraged to allow sufficient time to meet your access needs. A minimum of two business days notice is required to ensure accommodation.

Refund Policy

All fees are non-refundable. If photos taken at the NC State Passport Services office are rejected, please contact us, bring the rejection letter from the Department of State, and we will re-take photos at no charge.
