Reviews

What Elgin & Fox River Valley Travelers Say About Our Expedited Passport Service

“My cousin in Guadalajara was getting married and we found out with three weeks notice. My children had never had passports. Fast Passport Center walked us through the entire process — which clerk to visit in Elgin, which forms to bring for both kids, and what to ship. We had both children's passports in seven business days and made it to the wedding. This company understands what family travel means.”

Child Passports — Family Wedding

“I'm an operations director at a manufacturing company in Kane County and got called to audit a European supplier in Germany with eight days notice. My passport was expired. Fast Passport Center processed my renewal in four business days. I made the audit, identified the issue, and saved a major supply relationship. Worth every penny for the speed and reliability.”

Emergency Renewal — Business Travel

“My daughter was accepted to Elgin Community College's international exchange program in Spain. She had never had a passport and we had six weeks until departure. Fast Passport Center guided her through every step — she was nervous about the process but they made it completely clear. Passport arrived in eight business days. She studied abroad for a full semester in Madrid.”
