Lititz Post Office Passport Services

After submitting your application at the Lititz Post Office, you can monitor its status online through the Department of State’s official passport tracking system. Simply visit travel.state.gov/passportstatus and enter your last name, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security number. Please note that the Lititz Post Office staff, while expertly processing your initial submission, do not have access to real-time tracking information once your application leaves their facility. It typically takes 7-10 business days for your application to appear in the online system after being mailed from Lititz.

The total cost for a passport application processed at the Lititz Post Office involves two separate payments. The primary fee, payable by check or money order directly to the ‘U.S. Department of State,’ is $130 for a passport book or $30 for a passport card (or $160 for both). Additionally, there is a mandatory $35 execution fee payable to ‘USPS,’ which can be paid by check, money order, debit card, or cash at the Lititz Post Office. If you opt for on-site passport photo services at the Lititz facility, an extra fee of $18.00 will be added, payable to USPS as well. Expedited service also incurs additional fees of $60 per application, plus any express mail charges.

When applying for a passport at the Lititz Post Office, the payment structure is quite specific. For the passport application fee itself, which goes to the U.S. Department of State, you must provide a personal check, certified check, cashier’s check, or money order. Credit cards are *not* accepted for this portion. However, for the separate $35 execution fee, payable to ‘USPS,’ and for any optional passport photo services or express mail upgrades provided by the Lititz Post Office, you can pay using cash, a debit card, a check, or a money order. It’s always best practice to bring multiple payment methods to ensure a smooth process.

Most adult passport renewals (Form DS-82) are processed by mail directly to the National Passport Processing Center and generally cannot be submitted in person at the Lititz Post Office. You are eligible to renew by mail if your most recent passport is undamaged, was issued when you were 16 or older, was issued within the last 15 years, and is in your current name or you can provide documentation of a name change. If you do not meet all of these criteria, or if you are applying for a minor, then you must apply in person using Form DS-11, which the Lititz Post Office expertly handles as an acceptance facility.

To ensure a complete and efficient passport application experience at the Lititz Post Office, you’ll need to bring several key documents. This includes a completed, but unsigned, DS-11 Passport Application Form. You’ll also need proof of U.S. citizenship, such as an original birth certificate or a previous passport, along with a photocopy of this document. A valid government-issued identification, like a driver’s license, is required, accompanied by a front and back photocopy. Finally, one recent 2×2 inch passport photograph is essential. Remember to bring your payment for both the State Department and USPS, as described previously, to finalize your application.

Parking in downtown Lititz, especially on East Main Street, requires a bit of strategy due to its popularity. Directly in front of the Lititz Post Office at 74 East Main Street, you’ll find limited metered street parking. These spots typically cost $0.75 per hour with a strict 2-hour limit, enforced Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. For longer appointments, or during peak times when street parking is scarce, the best alternative is the Lititz Borough municipal parking lot, located just one block south. This 55-space lot is conveniently accessible via North Cedar Street, turning east off North Broad Street. The first hour in this lot is free, then subsequent hours are charged at $1.00 each, offering a more flexible option for a 20-minute passport appointment. Walking from the municipal lot to the Post Office is a pleasant 0.1-mile stroll, taking approximately 2-3 minutes along West Main Street. Arriving at least 15-20 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment is highly advisable to secure suitable parking, particularly on Tuesday and Thursday mornings or during the popular summer and autumn tourist seasons when downtown Lititz experiences higher visitor volumes. During winter, be mindful of snow accumulation; specific parking bans might be in effect after heavy snowfall, and street parking might be reduced due to plowing efforts, making the municipal lot a more reliable choice.

No, passport renewals cannot be done at acceptance facilities. Renewals must be mailed directly to the State Department using Form DS-82, or you can use our expedited renewal service.
