Where to apply for your passport

If you are submitting a PC7 adult renewal or PC8 child renewal (under 16 years old), you can lodge your application by mail.

All other applications must be lodged in person and by appointment only.  There is no walk-in service. Applicants without an appointment will not be seen so please book an appointment in advance.

Appointments with the passport office are limited.  Please ensure that you attend the appointment you book.  You can cancel or reschedule your appointment through your confirmation email. 

Please do not make duplicate bookings as this increases appointment wait times for other applicants.   If multiple bookings are made, please be aware we reserve the right to cancel additional appointments. You will not be seen without a valid appointment on the day.

 

Visiting our offices

• You must have an appointment to visit our office. You will not be seen without one.
