Abstract

Pursuant to Department regulations, the renewal of a U.S. passport must meet certain requirements to qualify for submission of an application by mail. The Department will now provide qualified applicants the option of submitting renewal applications by mail or on- line via the Department's official website. This amendment will provide more flexibility for the renewal applicant, will improve the customer experience, and eliminate the added burden, time, and cost to the customer by providing the on-line option as an alternative to the mail in process.
