Where to mail a passport renewal

• If you live in a state that borders Canada, you can mail your application to the Regional Passport Agency in Philadelphia, PA:
  • U.S. Department of State
  • Regional Passport Agency

Additional Tips

• Make sure to use the correct mailing address for your state to ensure timely processing.
• Use a trackable shipping method, such as USPS Priority Mail or UPS, to ensure your application is delivered to the correct address.
• Keep a copy of your application and supporting documents for your records.
• Do not send cash or a check with your application. You can pay the application fee with a check or money order made payable to the U.S. Department of State.
