Did you know that our local Santa Clarita Public Library offers passport acceptance services? Whether you’re planning a vacation, studying abroad or reconnecting with family, the Santa Clarita Public Library is here to support your journey.
As a parent of two children, I know firsthand how exciting it is to plan a family trip and I’m thrilled to share that all three Santa Clarita Library Branches offer passport services to our community, making it easier for families like mine to embark on their adventures. My kids both received their first passports at the Valencia Library Branch, 23743 Valencia Blvd, Valencia, CA 91355 and it was a fantastic experience. Library staff provide a variety of passport options, including new adult passports, renewals for adults with expired passports (up to 15 years), passports for children and replacement passports for those unexpected situations. With these services at our fingertips, we can focus more on the joy of exploring new destinations.
However, to ensure a smooth passport application process, there are a few essential items you’ll need, though specifics may vary based on your individual situation. Be prepared to bring a completed and unsigned DS-11 application, along with proof of citizenship and a copy of that document. You’ll also need to provide a valid form of identification and a copy as well as a previous passport, if applicable. Payments can be made using a personal check, money order or cashier’s check payable to the U.S. Department of State, along with the necessary fee for the Santa Clarita Public Library services. If you’re unsure about what documents are required for your specific case, I encourage you to visit the Library and speak with a passport services agent who can provide personalized guidance.
Once you have a clear understanding of what you need, booking an appointment for passport services at the Library is quick and easy. Simply log on to the Santa Clarita Public Library website at SantaClaritaLibrary.com/Passports. Click on the passports link, which will take you to our dedicated passports page, where you can check the availability at each Branch and easily schedule your appointment. This streamlined process ensures that you can secure your appointment with minimal hassle.
