Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Fairfax and Northern Virginia travelers trust us when their departure is days away. Here is what some of them have to say.
“My passport expired three weeks before my study abroad semester at Oxford. Fast Passport Center had my renewal processed in 4 days. I shipped from the Fairfax UPS on Main Street and never had to leave the county. Incredible service.”
Jennifer L.
Fairfax, VA
“Emergency passport for a government contractor assignment in Germany. I was facing a deadline that could have cost me the contract. Fast Passport Center delivered in 36 hours. Their Fairfax team knew exactly what I needed.”
David R.
Centreville, VA
“First passports for my twin daughters before our family trip to Costa Rica. Fast Passport Center handled the parental consent requirements perfectly and had both passports in 5 days. The Fairfax-area service was outstanding.”

“Lost my passport 72 hours before a flight to Tokyo for a tech conference. I was absolutely panicking. Fast Passport Center had a replacement in my hands in 28 hours. They saved a major client presentation.”

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.

Avoid Delays
Fairfax travelers often face the temptation to drive to the Washington regional passport agency. Here are the most common mistakes that cause delays.
Fairfax photo shops often use generic sizes. Passport photos must be exactly 2×2 inches with a white or off-white background.
Missing signatures or using the wrong form type are the #1 reasons for rejection at Northern Virginia acceptance facilities.
Fees change frequently. Many Fairfax applicants show up with incorrect payment and have to reschedule their appointment.
Without flight confirmation or travel itinerary, the Washington DC regional agency will turn you away for emergency appointments.
For minors, both parents must appear or submit notarized consent. This trips up many Fairfax families at the clerk.
Fairfax travelers often assume standard processing will be fine. It takes 8–11 weeks. Start expedited at least 3 weeks before 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.
