You can bring your passport application to the Andover Public Library and we will process it for you. No more standing in line at the post office. Here at APL, your application will be processed in a matter of minutes. The turnaround time on passports depends on current demand.
Here at the Andover Public Library, we process passports for first-time applicants. We only do renewals for minors, those who were a minor when they got their last passport, and those whose passports expired more than five years ago. If you qualify for an appointment, give us a call at 316-558-3500 to make an appointment
If you are an adult and your adult passport has recently expired (within the last five years), we cannot process your passport. Instead, you will fill out a renew by mail form (which you can get at the library or online at travel.state.gov), and turn in your documents via the mail
As of June 11, 2020, passport applications will be processed by appointment only. Appointments must be made at least 24 hours in advance. No same-day passport appointments will be given. Passport applications are processed at APL Monday through Friday from 9:00 am with the last appointment at 2:40 pm. We do not process passports on Saturdays. All documents must be present in order to process your application. Missing documents will require you to schedule a new appointment for another day. Please respect your appointment time; late arrivals will require you to schedule a new appointment for another day.
If a minor’s parents have different first or last names than what is on the minor’s birth certificate, the original name change documentation (marriage license, divorce decree, court order) must be provided with the application.
Please note there are SIGNIFICANT DELAYS in processing passport applications at the Department of State. Please visit the official Department of State website for up-to-date information at www.travel.state.gov or contact the National Passport Information Center at 1-877-487-2778 or email NPIC@state.gov.
Please note that the passport desk is not open if the library is closed for federal holidays or inclement weather. Check our home page for more information.
