See what Bayonne and Hudson County travelers say about our expedited passport 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.

Acceptance facility for first-time applications. Photo services available. Popular with Jersey City and Bayonne commuters.

Avoid Delays
Avoid these common mistakes Bayonne applicants make.
Bayonne CVS and Walgreens sometimes print photos that don't meet the 2x2 inch, white background standard. Always verify before submitting.
First-time applicants often forget the birth certificate or don't bring the correct parental consent forms for minors. We provide a complete checklist.
Bayonne's Cape Liberty cruise port means many residents book cruises months in advance. But passport processing slots fill quickly. Start your application at least 6-8 weeks before travel.
Not all Bayonne-area post offices offer passport acceptance. Verify before visiting. We can schedule appointments at confirmed facilities.
If your name has changed due to marriage, divorce, or other reasons, ensure all documents match. Bring supporting legal documents.
