First things first: Are you a first-time applicant or renewing? Newton residents have unique travel aspirations, and we tailor our approach accordingly. For first-timers, you’ll need more comprehensive documentation. Renewals? We’ve got a smoother path prepared.

Time to gather your paperwork arsenal. Original birth certificate, valid photo ID, and recent photographs that meet strict federal guidelines. Our team can help verify each document’s authenticity, ensuring no unexpected roadblocks in your passport journey.

DS-11 for new passports, DS-82 for renewals. We’ll walk you through each line, making sure every detail reflects your Newton precision. Our staff knows these forms like the back of their hand and can spot potential errors before they become problems.

Passport photos matter! While we recommend professional shots, we know Newton’s creative souls. The Old Mill Museum’s natural lighting or our downtown square offer excellent backdrop options. Measurements matter: 2×2 inches, neutral expression, no accessories.

Bring everything to our local facility. We’ll review your documents, verify your identity, and process your application with the same care we treat our community crops. Expect professionalism, transparency, and that genuine Newton friendliness.

Passport fees vary by type and processing speed. We accept multiple payment methods and can break down costs transparently. Expedited services are available for those with urgent travel plans. Our goal? Get you that passport efficiently and affordably.
