Yes, Passport Place at the University of Louisville operates strictly by appointment to ensure efficient service for all applicants. You can easily schedule your slot online through the university’s designated passport services page or by calling our office directly during business hours.

You must bring proof of U.S. citizenship (like your original birth certificate or previous passport), a valid government-issued ID (like a Kentucky driver’s license), a completed but unsigned DS-11 form, and a compliant passport photo.

The separate execution fee, charged by Passport Place at the University of Louisville, along with any optional photo services, can be paid via credit/debit card or money order directly at our facility.

Routine processing times for applications submitted at Passport Place generally range from 6-8 weeks, while expedited service can reduce this to 2-3 weeks. Please note that these timelines are set by the U.S. Department of State, not by our facility in Louisville, and can fluctuate based on national demand.

Passport Place at the University of Louisville typically operates Monday through Friday during standard business hours, such as 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We strongly recommend checking the official University of Louisville Passport Services website or calling ahead, as hours can be adjusted for university holidays, semester breaks, or unforeseen closures specific to our Louisville campus.
