Once applications are accepted at the City of Palm Bay facility, they are submitted to one of thirteen regional passport agencies for processing and issuance of the passport. 

Applications must be signed in the presence of a customer service representative at our office when an application is filed. These forms are also available on the U.S. Department of State website.

New Application

To obtain a passport for the first time, the applicant will need to appear before an Acceptance Agent.  You will need the application (form DS-11),  two official passport photographs, proof of U.S. citizenship, and a valid form of photo identification such as a driver’s license.    

You must make application in person at an Acceptance Facility if you are applying for a U.S. passport for the first time; if your passport is not in your possession; if your previous passport has expired and was issued more than 15 years ago; if your previous passport was issued when you were under age 16; or if your currently valid U.S. passport has been lost or stolen.

For questions, please call our office at 321-733-3023.
