Reviews
See what Hudson County travelers say about our expedited passport services.
“I had a last-minute business trip to Tokyo and realized my passport was expiring in two months. Fast Passport Center got me an emergency appointment at the NYC agency. From Hoboken, it was a quick PATH ride downtown. Saved my trip.”
Sarah Kim

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.

Acceptance facility for first-time applications. Photo services available. Popular with Jersey City and Hoboken residents.

Avoid Delays
Avoid these common mistakes Hoboken applicants make.
Hoboken CVS and Walgreens sometimes print photos that don't meet the 2x2 inch, white background standard. Always verify before submitting.
First-time applicants often forget the birth certificate or don't bring the correct parental consent forms for minors. We provide a complete checklist.
Hudson County's proximity to Newark and NYC airports means many residents travel internationally. Start your application at least 6-8 weeks before travel.
