Boggs Rd Postal Store Passport Services

The cost of a passport depends on several factors, including your age and the type of passport you’re applying for. For a new adult passport (DS-11 form), you’ll pay $130 to the State Department, plus a $35 execution fee payable to Boggs Rd Postal Store. Children under 16 also pay $130 for the passport book but the execution fee remains $35. Passport cards, which are only valid for land and sea travel between the US, Canada, and Mexico, are cheaper, with a $30 fee for adults and children, plus the $35 execution fee at Boggs Rd Postal Store. Keep in mind that these fees are subject to change, so it’s always a good idea to confirm the current costs on the Department of State’s website or by calling the Boggs Rd Postal Store directly at 770-XXX-XXXX.

Yes, expedited passport service is available, both from the State Department and through Boggs Rd Postal Store. The State Department charges an additional $60 for expedited processing, which significantly reduces the processing time. Even with expedited service, you will still need to pay the standard application and execution fees at Boggs Rd Postal Store. While Boggs Rd Postal Store processes the paperwork, the actual adjudication of the passport occurs at a processing center. If you have extremely urgent travel plans within 2 weeks, consider contacting the National Passport Information Center to schedule an appointment at a regional passport agency.

The main difference between routine and expedited passport processing lies in the processing time. Routine processing, as of November 2024, averages about 7.2 weeks. Expedited processing cuts that time down to around 2.5 weeks. If you have upcoming international travel within the next few months, consider expedited service for peace of mind, especially given fluctuating processing times. Keep in mind that these times are estimates and can change depending on the volume of applications the State Department receives. If you’re unsure, it’s always best to err on the side of caution and opt for expedited service. Boggs Rd Postal Store staff can help you with the paperwork necessary for expedited processing.

Whether you can renew your passport at Boggs Rd Postal Store depends on your eligibility. If your previous passport was issued within the last 15 years, you were over the age of 16 when it was issued, and it’s not damaged, you can typically renew by mail using form DS-82. However, Boggs Rd Postal Store can assist with the renewal process, answer questions, and take your passport photo, ensuring your application is complete and accurate. If you do not meet the requirements to renew by mail, you must apply in person using form DS-11, which can be done at Boggs Rd Postal Store.

If you choose to walk in, be prepared to wait, as priority is given to those with scheduled appointments. Calling ahead to check availability can also be helpful.

Spaces directly in front of the store are often available.

If the main lot is full, overflow parking is available along the access road on the side of the building. It’s a 0.1 mile walk to the store from the furthest parking spots.
