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 acceptance facility for Rehoboth Beach and Dewey Beach. Appointments required — book 1–2 weeks in advance.

Avoid Delays
Rehoboth Beach, Delaware has a unique mix of seasonal vacationers, year-round coastal residents, and retirees. Here are the most common passport mistakes we see from Sussex County travelers.
Coastal Delaware travelers often book cruises and international beach vacations before checking if their passport is valid. Many countries require 6 months validity beyond your return date. Check before booking.
Beach resort area photo services sometimes produce photos that meet general ID requirements but not passport standards. Passport photos must be exactly 2x2 inches with a white or off-white background.
Missing signatures or using the wrong form type are the #1 rejection reasons at Rehoboth Beach and Sussex County acceptance facilities.
Some Sussex County post offices have reduced hours during the off-season. Always call ahead to confirm passport acceptance hours before making the trip.
Government fees change periodically. Always verify current fees before submitting — incorrect payment means starting over.
Rehoboth Beach residents often assume 4–6 weeks is enough. Routine processing takes 6–13 weeks. If your cruise or vacation is within 10 weeks, use expedited service.
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.
