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
Farmington Hills is an affluent Oakland County suburb with a significant international business community. Here are the most common passport mistakes we see from northwestern Oakland County travelers.
Farmington Hills residents are 25 miles from downtown Detroit but traffic on I-696 and the Lodge can make the drive unpredictable. Routine processing takes 6–13 weeks. Start expedited service at least 6 weeks before your trip.
Many Oakland County residents use a passport card or enhanced license for Canada driving trips — but these are not valid for air travel. If you fly internationally, you need a passport book.
Local photo shops in Farmington Hills and Novi sometimes produce photos that meet ID requirements but not passport standards. Photos must be exactly 2x2 inches with a plain white or off-white background, taken within 6 months.
Missing signatures or incorrect form completion are the #1 rejection reasons at Farmington Hills-area acceptance facilities. Our document review catches these before submission.
Oakland County residents who drive themselves to the Detroit Passport Agency spend 1.5+ hours round-trip plus parking and waiting. A courier saves you the entire day and gets faster results.
The Detroit Passport Agency requires appointments and is typically booked 2 weeks out. There are no same-day walk-in slots — plan ahead or use Fast Passport Center's courier service.
