Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Florence and Northern Kentucky travelers trust us when their departure is days away. Here is what some of them have to say.
“My husband travels for business through CVG constantly and his passport expired before a trip to Frankfurt. Fast Passport Center renewed it in 48 hours. They know how important timing is for airport corridor residents.”

“We booked a Disney cruise for the kids and realized my daughter's passport had expired 3 weeks before sailing. They expedited her child passport in 4 days. The kids got to meet Mickey on Castaway Cay.”

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
Florence travelers often face long drives to the nearest regional passport agency. Here are the most common mistakes that cause delays.
Boone County 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 Boone County acceptance facilities.
Fees change frequently. Many Florence applicants show up with incorrect checks and have to reschedule their appointment.
Without flight confirmation or travel itinerary, the Chicago regional agency will turn you away for emergency appointments.
For minors, both parents must appear or submit notarized consent. This trips up many Boone County families at the clerk.
Northern Kentucky 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.
