Abstract of Proposed Collection
The U.S. Passport Renewal Application for Eligible Individuals
(form DS-82) is used by eligible citizens and non-citizen nationals of
the United States who need to renew their current or recently expired
U.S. passport.
Methodology
Passport Services collects information from U.S. nationals when
they complete and submit the DS-82. The Department features an online
application process called Online Passport Renewal (OPR). Using the
online platform, eligible applicants can complete the required steps
for passport renewal. Passport applicants can download the DS-82 from
the internet or obtain the form from an acceptance facility/passport
agency. The form must be completed, signed, and submitted by mail or in
person at an acceptance facility, passport agency, or U.S. embassy/
consulate (if abroad).

Managing Director for Passport Support Operations, Bureau of Consular
Affairs, Passport Services, Department of State.
