Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center

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.
Primary Fountain acceptance facility. Limited appointment slots — book well in advance. Serves Fountain, Fort Carson, and Security-Widefield residents.
On-base acceptance facility for active duty military, dependents, and retirees. Military ID required for base access. Limited hours — call ahead. Serves Fort Carson personnel.
Largest acceptance facility in the region. Downtown Colorado Springs location. More appointment availability than Fountain. Approximately 15-minute drive from Fountain.
County government passport acceptance with extended hours (8AM–5PM). Serves all El Paso County residents. Good for early morning appointments before work.
Convenient for Security-Widefield residents. Closer than Colorado Springs for northern Fountain communities. Limited appointments — call ahead.
Last chance — sign up now, before your clerk visit
If you need your passport fast, sign up with Fast Passport Center before you walk into that clerk appointment. Once your documents go through the standard route, they're gone — there's no pulling them back, no upgrading, no saving you after the fact. Don't wait and hope it works out.
Emergency Passports
If you need your passport within two weeks, the Denver Passport Agency is your only do-it-yourself option — Approximately 75 miles north via I-25 — about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Getting an appointment there is rarely straightforward. Fast Passport Center gives you a faster, simpler path without the uncertainty.

Avoid Delays
Fountain is a military community anchored by Fort Carson, with growing residential suburbs and families. Here are the most common passport mistakes we see from Fountain-area travelers.
Military families at Fort Carson receive PCS orders with specific reporting dates. Routine passport processing takes 8–11 weeks — too slow for most PCS timelines. Start expedited service as soon as you receive orders.
Official (government/military) passports have different photo requirements than tourist passports. Using tourist passport photos for official passport applications will cause rejection. Verify photo requirements with your command.
Active duty military and dependents can use the Fort Carson Post Office for passport acceptance — it's often less crowded than civilian facilities. Military ID required for base access.
Fountain to the Denver Passport Agency is 75 miles and about 1 hour 15 minutes each way without traffic. With I-25 corridor congestion, it can easily be 1.5+ hours each way. Our courier service eliminates this 2.5+ hour round trip entirely.
Military personnel PCSing overseas may need both official and tourist passports. Different countries have different SOFA (Status of Forces Agreement) requirements. Verify with your personnel office before applying.
Military families often have one parent deployed or TDY. Both parents must consent for a minor's passport — or the absent parent must provide notarized consent. Plan ahead for deployment schedules.
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.
