Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Green Bay travelers trust us when their departure is days away. Here is what some of them have to say.
“Work trip to Germany, passport expired, found out 5 days before departure. Fast Passport Center sent a courier to Chicago and I had a new passport in 48 hours. No way I was driving 7 hours round trip.”
Tom H.
Ashwaubenon, WI
“Renewed our whole family's passports before a cruise. Fast Passport Center handled all four and we had them back in 6 days. Highly recommend for northeast Wisconsin families.”
Amanda P.
De Pere, WI
“Lost my passport in Door County a week before a trip to Iceland. They walked me through the DS-64 and got me a replacement in record time. Saved the trip.”
Ryan K.
Appleton, WI
“My son needed a passport for his first international trip. Fast Passport Center made the whole process easy — from the DS-11 form to finding an acceptance facility near Howard. Great service.”
Laura B.
Howard, WI
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.

Last chance — sign up now, before your clerk visit

Emergency Passports
If you need your passport within two weeks, the Chicago Passport Agency is your only do-it-yourself option — Approximately 200 miles from Green Bay — about 3.5 hours via I-43 south. Getting an appointment there is rarely straightforward. Fast Passport Center gives you a faster, simpler path without the uncertainty.

Avoid Delays
Green Bay travelers — including Packers staff, healthcare workers, and Fox Valley professionals — have specific passport needs. Here are the most common mistakes we see.
At 200 miles away, a wasted trip to Chicago is a 7-hour roundtrip. The Chicago Passport Agency requires appointments and turns away walk-ins. Fast Passport Center eliminates this problem entirely.
Passport photos must be 2×2 inches with a white background. Verify at any Green Bay CVS or Walgreens before submitting.
Many Green Bay travelers connect through Chicago for international flights. Ensure your passport is valid before booking — airlines cannot board you without one.
Renewals use DS-82, first-time applications and lost passports use DS-11/DS-64. Using the wrong form delays your application by weeks.
For minors under 16, both parents must appear or one must provide notarized consent on DS-3053. Brown County families often miss this step.
Standard processing takes 8–11 weeks. Green Bay travelers planning summer travel to Europe or cruises often start too late. Begin your expedited application at least 6 weeks in advance.
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.
