Emergency US Passports
Your emergency passport can be obtained in as little as 24 hours
in the event of a last-minute passport emergency. It’s Easy
frequently gets calls from panicked travelers who realize they need
to get an emergency passport just days before a trip, for any number
of reasons: their passport has expired, they didn't know the
trip required a passport, they have damaged their passport or run
out of visa pages. In fact, it is for exactly those passport emergencies
that we offer 24-hour customer service at our toll-free number (1-866-ITS-EASY).
You can call anytime from anywhere in the U.S. and arrange to have
your emergency passport application processed within one business
day if needed.
Need an Emergency Passport?
If you do need an emergency passport, you will need to have it expedited,
either by making an in-person appointment with your nearest passport
agency or with an expediting service like It’s Easy. The passport
agency’s appointment system is automated, and there is no
guarantee that an appointment will be available before your departure,
particularly if you have only a day or two. Emergency passport expediters,
however, have established relationships with the passport agencies
and can submit emergency passport applications easily without making
appointments. This is why using a passport expediting service makes
the most sense for people who need to get a passport in a hurry.
Get an Emergency Passport
The requirements for an emergency passport are the same as those
for a regular passport application, except you will need to show
proof that you need a passport expedited. An itinerary showing a
trip within two weeks (or a month, if a travel visa will also be
required) should be submitted with your passport application. Visit
It’s Easy’s passport pages to find more information
about the requirements for the emergency passport service you need.
Note: U.S. Consulates and Embassies outside of the U.S. issue limited-validity
emergency passports to U.S. travelers abroad. If you are outside
of the U.S. and need an emergency passport, you must apply in person
at a U.S. Consulate or Embassy.
