Are you getting ready for your next international adventure? Due to the extraordinarily high demand for passports, the U.S. Department of State is currently experiencing lengthy processing times of up to 13 weeks* for Routine Service, and 9 weeks* for Expedited Service. As such, if you are travelling internationally within 9 weeks, we encourage you to visit the U.S. Department of State’s website for the most up to date information regarding urgent travel.
The City’s Passport Facility, located inside of the City Clerk’s Office at the Huntington Beach Civic Center (2000 Main Street, Huntington Beach, CA 92648), is available to assist you by appointment Monday through Friday for Routine and Expedited Service. Just head to the City’s website and search “Passport Services” to schedule your appointment, and retrieve necessary information for a seamless application process.
Note: Effective July 1, 2023, the City’s photo processing fee will increase from $10 to $15 per photo.
*Mailing times are not included in processing times. The total time to receive your passport includes both processing and mailing times. It may take up to two weeks for applications to arrive by mail at a passport agency or center, and up to two weeks to receive a completed passport in the mail after print. Consider the total time it will take to receive your passport when you are booking travel.
