As summer approaches, the U.S. Department of State urges travelers to apply early for their passports to avoid processing delays. Current processing times are:
- Routine service: 4–6 weeks
- Expedited service: 2–3 weeks (additional $60 fee)
- You need REAL ID for domestic flights starting May 7, 2025.
Applicants should also factor in mailing times, which can add up to 4 weeks to the total processing duration. To ensure timely receipt of your passport, it’s recommended to submit your application well in advance of planned travel dates.
