Passport Renewals

Renewals for adults

You may apply for a renewal of your passport if your previous passport:
 
1. was issued when you were 16 years of age, or older;
2. was issued within the last 15 years;
3. is not damaged; and
4. is submitted upon renewal.

If you cannot meet the above conditions, please follow the instructions for first-time applicants.

Please note that remarks on www.travel.state.gov are intended for domestic passport applicants, not overseas applicants. The U.S. Consulate Guadalajara requires the same form for the passport.

1. The completed form DS-82;
2. Current government-issued photo identification;
3. Two identical 2 X 2 inches (5 x 5 cm) passport photos; and

b. U.S. notarized written consent (in English) signed by the absent parent authorizing the applying parent to request a U.S. passport for the minor child, and

c. A copy of absent parent’s identification with a clear photograph and signature.
 
3. If only one parent has sole custody it is necessary to bring proof that the parent executing the application has sole custody of child may also be accepted (i.e., birth certificate listing the mother as the only named parent, court order granting sole legal custody to one parent, or death certificate of deceased parent).
