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 hours are limited. Appointments required. Call ahead to confirm passport acceptance times.
Convenient for Auburn residents. Limited passport hours — call to confirm.
Good option for Lisbon residents. Appointment recommended.
Accepts walk-ins but appointments preferred. Photo services not available on-site.
Small town office with limited hours. Call ahead to schedule passport acceptance.
Popular for Poland and surrounding towns. Appointment recommended.
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.

Avoid Delays
With Lewiston being a key hub for central Maine travelers, passport delays can be costly. Here are the most common mistakes we see.
Maine photo shops often use generic sizes. Passport 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 Lewiston acceptance facilities.
Fees change frequently. Many Lewiston applicants show up with incorrect checks and have to reschedule their appointment.
Without flight confirmation or travel itinerary, the Boston regional agency will turn you away for emergency appointments.
For minors, both parents must appear or submit notarized consent. This trips up many Lewiston families at the clerk.
Lewiston travelers often assume standard processing will be fine. It takes 8–11 weeks. Start expedited at least 3 weeks before travel.
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.
