Why Travelers Choose Fast Passport Center
Reviews
Suffolk and Hampton Roads travelers trust us when their departure is days away. Here is what some of them have to say.
“I live near the historic district of Suffolk and needed an emergency passport for a cruise to the Bahamas with 4 days notice. Fast Passport Center had my renewal in 3 days. I shipped from the UPS on Main Street and it was completely seamless. No need to drive to DC or wait in government lines.”
Angela W.

“As a Smithfield resident, I was worried about finding expedited passport services close to home. Fast Passport Center made it incredibly easy. Everything was done online, and my renewal was back in 5 days. The convenience for Isle of Wight families is unbeatable.”
James L.

“First passports for my three grandchildren before a family trip to Jamaica. Fast Passport Center handled all the parental consent requirements perfectly and had all passports in 6 days. For Suffolk families, this is the best expedited passport service available.”

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.

Avoid Delays
Suffolk travelers often face the temptation to drive to the Washington regional passport agency. Here are the most common mistakes that cause delays.
Suffolk photo shops often use generic sizes. 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 reasons for rejection at Hampton Roads acceptance facilities.
Fees change frequently. Many Suffolk applicants show up with incorrect payment and have to reschedule their appointment.
Without flight confirmation or travel itinerary, the Washington DC regional agency will turn you away for emergency appointments.
For minors, both parents must appear or submit notarized consent. This trips up many Suffolk families at the clerk.
Suffolk 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.
