Our Services
Whether you need a renewal, a first-time passport, or an emergency replacement — Fast Passport Center handles it with reserved courier submission availability.
International flight in 24–72 hours? Our emergency courier service submits directly via reserved agency slots — as fast as 24 hours. For urgent, last-minute travel that cannot wait.
Already hold a U.S. passport? We help residents renew fast — no agency visit required for most renewals. Perfect for professionals, families, and retirees preparing for international travel.
First-time applicants require an in-person acceptance clerk visit. We guide you through every step with clear instructions for the nearest acceptance location.
Replacements require additional forms. We guide you through DS-64 and everything needed to avoid costly mistakes — so your international connection or overseas trip is not derailed.
Minors require parental participation and an in-person acceptance step. We provide clear instructions and checklists so your family vacation or trip abroad stays on schedule.
After marriage, divorce, or a legal name change — we assist with corrected passports so your travel documents match your reservations. Common for professionals after name changes.
Need a second passport for frequent international travel? Ideal for corporate executives, tech workers, and consultants who travel internationally while their primary passport is in visa processing.
Replacing a significantly damaged passport is faster than you think. We guide you through the process so your international itinerary or corporate travel stays on track.
The passport card is a wallet-size travel document for land and sea crossings to Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. We expedite passport card applications with the same courier service as book passports.

Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Incline Village and North Lake Tahoe travelers trust us when their international departure is days away. Here is what some of them have to say.
“Second homeowner here and realized my passport expired right before a trip to France. Fast Passport Center renewed it in 2 days. Incredible service in a mountain town. Made my flight with time to spare.”
William C.
Incline Village, NV
“Lost my passport at a Tahoe casino the night before a ski trip to the Swiss Alps. Called in a panic and they replaced it in 36 hours. I still can't believe they pulled it off. Ski trip saved!”
Karen S.
Crystal Bay, NV
“Full-time Tahoe resident needing a fast renewal for a business trip to Japan. The thought of driving over Donner Pass in winter for the San Francisco agency was terrifying. Fast Passport Center handled everything from home. 48 hours, done.”

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

Avoid Delays
Incline Village residents enjoy mountain luxury living — but mountain roads and winter conditions complicate agency visits. Here are the most common passport mistakes we see.
Lake Tahoe photo shops may not follow strict passport specs. 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 small mountain acceptance facilities like the Incline Village Post Office.
Incline Village's Mount Rose Highway and I-80 over Donner Pass can be closed or require chains in winter. The nearest passport agency in San Francisco is 200 miles away — and completely unreachable in heavy snow. Our courier service keeps you off mountain roads.
Without flight confirmation or travel itinerary, you'll be turned away at any regional passport agency. Don't risk driving 200 mountain miles only to be rejected.
For minors, both parents must appear or submit notarized consent. This is especially important for Tahoe families where parents may have different schedules or travel separately.
Mail service to and from Incline Village can be affected by winter weather. Standard processing takes 8–11 weeks. Start expedited at least 3 weeks before travel to account for mountain shipping delays.
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.
