What is a passport?

A passport is an official document that proves your citizenship and identity. It allows you to travel internationally and is typically required for air travel. Once you have your passport, you can use it to enter any country that has an agreement with your home country.

Passports are also necessary for many other international activities, such as applying for a visa or opening a bank account.

Get started

Why you need a passport

Travel abroad

A passport is an essential document for anyone who plans to travel internationally. Whenever you go through customs or immigration, they will always ask to see your passport. This is to ensure that you are who you say you are, and that you are allowed to be in the country.

Get an additional form of identification

A passport can also be used as an additional form of identification when applying for a job, opening a bank account, or renting an apartment. When used in conjunction with other forms of ID, such as a driver's license or birth certificate, a passport can help to prove your identity.

Frequently asked passport questions

How do I receive my passport?

The State Department mails your passport directly to you, and depending on what you requested, it may arrive in multiple shipments:

Passport book or card – Your passport book or card and your citizenship documents may come in two separate mailings within ten days of each other.
Passport book and passport card – Your documents, card, and book may arrive in three individual mailings. The second and third packages should arrive within ten days of the first.

How much will it cost?

Your total cost has two parts: the GOV+ service fee for preparing your kit, and the government's passport fee paid directly to the U.S. Department of State. The GOV+ service fee depends on how fast you need your passport — see our pricing options at checkout. The government's passport fee depends on the type of passport and your age:

Passport book (adult) – $165
Passport book (minor) – $135
Passport card (adult) – $65
Passport card (minor) – $50
Passport card and book (adult) – $195
Passport card and book (minor) – $150

When can I expect my passport?

Standard renewals take 6-8 weeks for the State Department to process and mail. With government delays, the process can take up to 12 weeks.
