Emergency passport renewals can be obtained as fast as the same day. If you find yourself pressed for time and in need of getting a passport fast, expediting the process is your only option. Get a passport renewed in so little time can be done in two ways. Either you apply at a regional agency or you go through a professional expediting service. Apply for Emergency Passport Renewal at Regional Agency The first step to getting emergency passport renewal at a regional passport agency is to set up an appointment. Contact the National Passport Information Center which has an automated appointment system at 1-877-487-2778. Often, it can be difficult to get through so be prepared to try several attempts. What do you do if you can’t get through or there is no appointment available when you need it? You can try just showing up at the regional agency closes to your location. Many applicants have been successful at applying without an appointment. What is required to get a passport renewal expedited? You must submit a completed application form DS-82, your most recent passport and two passport photographs that are no more than 6 months old. If your name has changed since your last passport was issued, you will also be required to submit legal proof of this.. If you arrive at the regional agency without an appointment, you will not be able to show a confirmation number. Therefore, you will be required to present your Social Security card. You also need to take evidence of your departure date to prove your need for emergency passport renewal.

The total cost for emergency passport renewal is $135. The application fee is $75 and expedited service is another $60. Payment should be made by personal check, money order or bank draft. Payment should be made to the U.S. Department of State. Your application should be processed and your renewed passport ready either the same day or the day after. Emergency Passport Renewals through a Passport Expediter There is another option for those who are unable to travel to a regional agency. This option entails authorizing a passport expediter to submit the request for emergency passport renewal for you. Since professional expediters are usually found in the same places as the regional agencies and registered with them, it is a logical means to get your passport. Many expediters have online forms you can use to apply for their service. Next, you must mail them the completed application form and the other required documents. It is recommended that you use a two-way overnight delivery method that allows you to trace the package. You should also use a secure envelope that will protect the contents. While professional expediters can get your passport renewed as quickly as the same day, you will need to factor in mail delivery time if you opt for this method. Of course, traveling to a regional agency could cost you a lot of time, especially if you do not live near one. The fees for this service vary depending on the expediter you choose and how fast you need to get your passport renewed. You should expect the cost to be somewhere between $65 for passport renewals expedited in two weeks

to as much as $299 for applications expedited the same day. This is in addition to the fees paid to the State Department. Professional expediters can be expensive and you can save quite a bit if you submit the application yourself. When you cannot get to a regional agency and you are running the risk of having to cancel your trip, authorizing a professional expediter to submit your application for emergency passport renewal could be a very wise decision.
