Determining your passport category is like reading the perfect wave – precision matters. Whether you’re a first-time applicant or renewing, we’ll help you understand the specific requirements. For new passports, you’ll need proof of citizenship, a valid photo ID, and a passport photo that captures your island glow.

Gathering documentation is similar to collecting seashells – each piece must be perfect. Birth certificates, social security cards, and government-issued IDs are your primary documents. We recommend organizing everything in a waterproof folder, a trick learned from generations of Maui document handlers.

Completing your DS-11 or DS-82 form requires the same attention you’d give to preparing a traditional Hawaiian luau. Every detail matters. We offer guidance on precise form completion, ensuring no detail is overlooked. Our staff understands the nuances of international travel documentation.

Passport photos in Wailea are an art form. We recommend taking photos near the Grand Wailea’s lush gardens or against the backdrop of Molokini Crater views. Avoid harsh sunlight and ensure your photo reflects the serene Maui spirit – neutral expression, proper lighting, no sunglasses.

Submission is more than paperwork – it’s a moment of transition. We’ll review every document, ensuring absolute accuracy. Our team understands the cultural significance of travel documents and treats each application with profound respect. Expect thorough, patient processing.

Passport fees vary based on processing speed and application type. We offer transparent pricing and can discuss expedited options. Current fees range from standard processing to urgent travel needs. Consider your timeline and budget, and we’ll help you make the most informed decision.
