Reviews
Real reviews from real Juneau residents who used Fast Passport Center.
“Living in Juneau means getting to Seattle is a full travel ordeal — flight, ferry, the works. FPC let me handle everything by mail and my passport arrived in 7 days. Absolutely saved our Alaska cruise.”

Common Mistakes
Avoid these common pitfalls that delay Juneau passport applications — several of which are unique to Southeast Alaska's geography.
Passport photos must be 2x2 inches with a white background and taken within the last 6 months. Most Juneau pharmacies and post offices offer photo services.
Juneau has no road connection to the lower 48. All shipping is by air, which adds transit time in both directions. Plan at least 3 weeks before travel.
Child passports under 16 require both parents or legal guardians present at the acceptance facility — or a notarized consent form if one parent can't attend.
Even expedited processing takes 2–9 days plus air shipping time. Juneau residents should apply at least 3 weeks before travel to safely account for Alaska logistics.
Many countries require 6 months of passport validity beyond your travel dates. Always verify the entry requirements for your specific destination.
Many Juneau visitors are cruise passengers — but Alaska residents departing by cruise need valid passports too. Don't wait until cruise season to apply.
