Local questions from MYRTLE BEACH residents about visiting the City Clerk for passport services

Yes, it is highly recommended to schedule an appointment for passport services at the Socastee Post Office due to demand, especially in the Myrtle Beach area. You can book your appointment online through the USPS Retail Customer Locator tool by searching for the Socastee Post Office and selecting ‘Passport Appointment’.

For a new passport at the Socastee Post Office, you’ll need your completed but unsigned DS-11 form, proof of U.S. citizenship (like your original birth certificate or previous passport), a valid photo ID (such as an SC driver’s license), and a recent passport photo. Ensure all documents are original or certified copies as required by the State Department.

You’ll pay two separate fees: the application fee to the ‘U.S. Department of State’ (check or money order only), and the execution fee to the Socastee Post Office (which can typically be paid by cash, debit/credit card, or money order). Make sure to have both payment methods ready when you visit the Socastee facility.

While the Socastee Post Office accepts your application, the actual processing time is determined by the U.S. Department of State, not the local facility. Currently, standard processing can take several weeks, and expedited services are available for an additional fee. You can track your application status online after it has been submitted from the Socastee location.

Passport acceptance hours at the Socastee Post Office can differ significantly from their regular postal service hours and are typically limited. It’s crucial to check the specific passport service hours for the Socastee facility on the USPS website’s Post Office Locator or by calling ahead before planning your visit.
