First things first – are you a first-time applicant or renewing? New passports require more documentation and a personal appearance. Renewals can sometimes be handled with more flexibility. Our municipal office staff can quickly determine your exact pathway, saving you time and potential headaches.

Birth certificates, naturalization papers, previous passports – gather them like you’re collecting family recipes. Each document tells a story, and for passport processing, these stories need to be crystal clear and original. No photocopies will do in this process, so dig deep into those family archives.

Driver’s license, government ID, school records – we need solid proof you’re who you say you are. In El Tumbao, we take identity seriously. Make sure everything matches perfectly, from your current address to your signature. Mismatched details can send you back to square one.

Miguel’s Photography Studio near the central plaza knows exactly what official passport photos require. Neutral background, proper lighting, no smiling – it’s like a serious job interview for your face. They’ll ensure your photo meets every federal requirement, saving you potential rejection hassles.

Our municipal center processes passports with the same care we prepare weekend barbecues – meticulously and with community pride. Double-check every form, every signature. One missed initial can send your application into bureaucratic limbo. Our staff will review everything, catching potential errors before they become problems.

Fees vary based on processing speed. Want it quick? Expect to pay more. Willing to wait? Save some dinero. We accept multiple payment methods and can help you understand the exact costs. Once submitted, you’ll get a tracking number faster than a salsa beat, allowing you to monitor your passport’s journey.
