You are required to use the Passport Wizard to complete your application. Please bring your printed application to your interview. Handwritten applications will not be accepted. Making use of the Passport Wizard allows us to process passports more quickly, meaning they are returned to you earlier. Be advised that forms must be completed and printed prior to your appointment. If you do not bring the necessary completed form using the Passport Wizard, we reserve the right to ask you to reschedule your appointment.

Note that mailing options are only available in the United States and that you must still show up in person to the US Embassy or Consulate General in order to submit your application by appointment. Click here to make an appointment.
