Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Moline travelers — from John Deere executives and Quad Cities business professionals to Augustana College families and QC Airport international travelers — trust us when their departure is days away.
“John Deere sent me to our Mannheim facility with 6 days notice and my passport had 3 months left — Germany requires 6 months validity. Fast Passport Center renewed it in 3 days. Shipped from UPS on John Deere Road. Made my meetings in Germany without a hitch. Every Deere employee should bookmark this service.”

“Family trip to Cancun leaving in 10 days and none of my kids had passports. Fast Passport Center got all 3 child passports in 5 days. The Moline post office appointment was smooth and they guided me through the whole process. Quad Cities families, this is the only way to do last-minute kid passports.”

“Lost my passport somewhere between John Deere Pavilion and my house — had a London trip in 7 days. Fast Passport Center got me a replacement in 2 days. I was literally in a panic and they made it so easy. Shipped from East Moline and was at MLI airport by Friday. Incredible.”

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.
Primary Moline acceptance facility. Convenient to downtown Moline, John Deere World HQ, and the riverfront. Appointments strongly recommended. Near the I-74 bridge.
Rock Island County acceptance facility at the county seat. Located near downtown Rock Island and Augustana College. Call ahead to confirm passport acceptance hours.
Serves Rock Island and western Quad Cities. Extended hours until 5 PM. Good alternative to Moline post office with longer service hours.
Serves East Moline, Silvis, and eastern Rock Island County. Convenient for residents near the John Deere Harvester Works and QC Airport.
Serves Silvis, Carbon Cliff, and eastern Rock Island County. Good option for residents near the QC Airport and IL-5 corridor.
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.
Emergency Passports
If you need your passport within two weeks, the Chicago Passport Agency is your only do-it-yourself option — Approximately 2 hours 45 minutes east of Moline via I-88 / I-290. Getting an appointment there is rarely straightforward. Fast Passport Center gives you a faster, simpler path without the uncertainty.

Avoid Delays
Moline is home to John Deere's World Headquarters with thousands of executives, engineers, and professionals traveling internationally every week — yet the nearest passport agency is nearly 3 hours away. Here are the most common passport mistakes in the Quad Cities.
John Deere World HQ executives and engineers frequently receive short-notice international travel assignments. With the Chicago Passport Agency nearly 3 hours away, there's no practical in-person emergency option. Our courier service is the fastest solution for Quad Cities corporate travelers.
Many Quad Cities travelers think they can 'just drive to Chicago' for an emergency appointment. At 2.75 hours each way plus downtown Chicago traffic and wait times, this is a 5.5+ hour ordeal — half a workday lost that most professionals simply can't afford.
Many Quad Cities international business travelers don't realize that numerous countries require 6 months of passport validity beyond the return date. A passport valid for 4 months means you cannot board for most European and Asian destinations.
Photo services across the Quad Cities may not consistently meet federal passport photo standards. John Deere ID photos do not qualify. Always use a dedicated passport photo service for international travel documents.
Using DS-82 instead of DS-11 for first-time passports (or vice versa) is the #1 cause of rejection at Moline and Rock Island acceptance facilities. Our document review catches this before submission.
Quad Cities International Airport (MLI) in Moline offers limited international service. Most international flights depart from Chicago O'Hare (ORD) — about 2.5 hours away. Plan your airport logistics and ensure your passport is ready well before heading to Chicago.
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.
