GREAT news! You can now renew your passport online!
Here are the requirements to qualify:
- you are not changing your name, gender, DOB, or place of birth
- you are not traveling for at least 8 weeks from submitting your application (if you need it sooner, then renewing in person is your best option)
- you are at least 25 years old
- the passport you are renewing was issued over 9 years ago but less than 15 years ago (between 2009-2015)
- you are applying for a regular tourist passport and live in the US
- you have your passport and it is not damaged (keep it with you, don’t mail it in)
- you are able to pay for the renewal with a debit/credit card
- you can upload a digital passport photo
- you are aware they will cancel your current passport once you submit renewal application and you won’t be able to travel internationally until you receive the new one
You can find more info on requirements and how to submit your renewal application on travel.state.gov ! What do you think about this change?!
