Addison Main Post Office Passport Services

You can also opt to receive email updates regarding your application’s progress.

Yes, both parents or legal guardians must appear in person when applying for a passport for a child under the age of 16 at the Addison Main Post Office. If one parent cannot be present, they must submit a notarized Form DS-3053 (Statement of Consent) along with a copy of their identification. This requirement ensures the safety and protection of minors and prevents international parental child abduction.

It’s a good idea to bring a favorite toy or book to keep the child occupied during the appointment.

Parking at the Addison Main Post Office is generally straightforward, with a dedicated lot located directly in front of the building. This free parking area provides approximately 65 spaces, accommodating the typical flow of customers. However, during peak hours, especially between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM on weekdays, parking can become scarce. An overflow parking area is available across Airport Parkway, approximately 0.1 miles away, adding an extra 30 spaces. Walking from the overflow lot requires crossing a well-marked crosswalk, but be mindful of traffic. Metered street parking is available along Addison Road, just a block west of the post office, at a rate of $1.25 per hour, enforced Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. During the hot Texas summers, be mindful of the pavement temperature when walking to and from your car, and consider parking in shaded areas if available. During winter months, icy conditions may warrant extra caution when walking across the parking lot. Arriving 15-20 minutes before your scheduled appointment is advisable to secure parking and avoid rushing.
