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.
Michigan's only regional passport agency. Serves travelers with international travel within 14 days (or 28 days with visa). Appointments are required — no walk-ins. Fast Passport Center couriers have direct access and can skip the appointment backlog.
Primary Southfield acceptance facility. Convenient for residents along the Telegraph and Southfield corridors. Appointments required — book 1–2 weeks in advance.

Avoid Delays
Southfield is a major business and professional community with many corporate travelers and families. Here are the most common passport mistakes we see from Southfield and Oakland County travelers.
Southfield business professionals and families often discover passport issues right before planned travel. Routine processing takes 6–13 weeks. Start expedited service at least 6 weeks before your trip.
Many Southfield residents use a passport card for land crossings to Canada — but these are not valid for air travel. If you fly internationally, you need a passport book.

Missing signatures or incorrect form completion are the #1 rejection reasons at Southfield-area acceptance facilities. Our document review catches these before submission.
Southfield corporate travelers should verify business visa requirements in addition to passport validity. Many countries require separate business visas that take additional processing time.
