SameDay Passport & Visas is a private passport and visa assistance service. The U.S. Department of State controls passport approval, appointment availability, and issuance.
Service Overview
Expedited passport renewal help is for adults who already had a U.S. passport and need a faster, cleaner path to a valid passport before travel. The goal is simple: confirm whether you can renew, prepare the correct materials, avoid mistakes that trigger delays, and choose the fastest available route for your deadline.
This page is for renewal cases only. If your previous passport was issued before age 16, was issued more than 15 years ago, is badly damaged, or was reported lost or stolen, you may need a new passport application instead of renewal.
Who Can Usually Renew
You may be able to renew by mail using Form DS-82 if your most recent passport:
- Can be submitted with the application
- Is not damaged beyond normal wear
- Has never been reported lost or stolen
- Was issued within the last 15 years
- Was issued when you were age 16 or older
- Was issued in your current name, or you can provide legal proof of the name change
Children under 16 cannot renew a passport. They must apply again in person using Form DS-11.

//FAQs
Your Questions Answered
Can I renew my passport the same day?
- Same-day issuance may be possible only in urgent travel situations when you qualify for a passport agency appointment and your documents are complete. Appointment availability is controlled by the U.S. Department of State.
How fast is expedited passport renewal?
- Current expedited passport processing is 2-3 weeks, not including mailing time. If you travel within 14 calendar days, you may need the urgent agency route instead of normal expedited processing.
How much does expedited passport renewal cost?
- Service help starts at $199 + government fees + shipping. Government examples include $130 for an adult passport book renewal, $60 for expedited service, and $22.05 for optional 1-3 day delivery after issuance.
Do I need to go in person to renew?
Many eligible adults renew by mail using DS-82. If you are traveling urgently, do not qualify for DS-82, or need a passport agency appointment, an in-person step may be required.
Can I renew if my passport is damaged?
Normal wear is usually different from damage. Water stains, major tears, unofficial markings, missing pages, or holes may mean you cannot renew and need a new DS-11 application.
Can a child renew a passport?
No. Children under 16 must apply again in person using Form DS-11.
