Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Aurora travelers trust us when their departure is days away. Here is what some of them have to say.
“My flight to Mexico City was in 3 days and I discovered my passport expired. Even with the Regional Agency nearby in Aurora, I couldn't get an appointment. Fast Passport Center got my renewal done in 36 hours. Saved my family vacation.”
Maria G.
South Aurora, CO
“Needed to renew for a business trip to London and couldn't get a Regional Agency appointment in time. Fast Passport Center had my passport back to me in 5 days. Professional and reliable.”
Kevin L.
Town Center, Aurora
“Lost my passport before a conference trip to Germany. They guided me through the DS-64 process and had a replacement ready in 2 days. No Regional Agency appointment nightmare.”
Sandra T.

“I travel internationally for work every quarter and Fast Passport Center always delivers. Faster than fighting for a Regional Agency slot and significantly cheaper than FedEx courier services.”

Passport Acceptance Clerks
First-time applicants — and most applicants who are not eligible for a standard mail-in renewal or a second passport — must apply in person at a passport acceptance clerk, and all locations require an appointment. This is the self-service option, typically chosen by those on a tighter budget who have at least 1–2+ months before travel and don't mind the slower, standard processing times.
If you want to use a registered U.S. Department of State courier to receive your passport in as little as 3 days, you must sign up with Fast Passport Center before going to the clerk. Once you apply at the clerk, your documents are sent through the standard route, and we cannot intervene or upgrade it to an expedited courier service afterward.
One of the busiest passport acceptance locations in Aurora. Appointments fill quickly — book 2+ weeks in advance.
South Aurora location. Appointment strongly recommended. Photo services available.
Convenient for Centennial and south Aurora residents. Call ahead for weekend availability.

Last chance — sign up now, before your clerk visit
If you need your passport fast, sign up with Fast Passport Center before you walk into that clerk appointment. Once your documents go through the standard route, they're gone — there's no pulling them back, no upgrading, no saving you after the fact. Don't wait and hope it works out.
Emergency Passports

Avoid Delays
Aurora has one of the busiest passport environments in Colorado — and the most common mistakes here cost travelers their appointment slots. Here is what we see most often.
Aurora photo shops often use generic sizes. Passport photos must be exactly 2×2 inches with a white or off-white background. A rejected photo means a cancelled appointment.
Missing signatures or using the wrong form type are the #1 reasons for rejection at Aurora acceptance facilities. One error means rescheduling weeks out.
Fees change frequently. Many Aurora applicants show up with incorrect checks and have to reschedule their appointment entirely.
Without flight confirmation or travel itinerary, the Denver Regional Agency will turn you away — even though it's right in Aurora.
For minors, both parents must appear or submit notarized consent. This trips up many Aurora families at the clerk.
Aurora travelers often assume they can just walk into the Regional Agency. Appointments are booked weeks out. Start expedited processing as soon as you confirm travel.
We check everything for you.
Fast Passport Center reviews your documents before submission — so you don't have to worry about these mistakes causing a delay.
