Determine whether you’re a first-time applicant or renewing. First-timers will need to appear in person, while renewals offer more flexibility. Pro tip: Check requirements while enjoying a local brew at Saxapahaw’s riverside establishments.

Gather proof of citizenship like a local detective. Birth certificates, previous passports, and government-issued IDs are your travel treasure map. Our community’s attention to detail will serve you well in this document gathering mission.

Passport photos aren’t just bureaucratic requirements—they’re your global introduction. Get them taken professionally or at local spots that understand Saxapahaw’s unique aesthetic. Avoid casual selfies and aim for that professional, adventure-ready look.

Fill out forms with the precision of a Saxapahaw craftsperson. Double-check every detail, from spelling to dates. The Saxapahaw General Store might even let you use their workspace for final form preparations.

Choose your submission location carefully. Local post offices or county clerk’s offices are your best bets. Bring all documents, fees, and that quintessential Saxapahaw confidence. Consider timing with local events to make the process more enjoyable.

Passport fees vary based on type and processing speed. Budget wisely, just like we do in our riverside community. Expedited services cost more but can be worth it if your global adventure is calling urgently.
