Passport Renewal
Don't forget to renew your passport early if it is set to expire prior to the end of your trip!
Passport renewal can take 13+ weeks + mailing time, and expediting requests can still exceed the expedited estimated time frame provided during request.
Don't wait! Start the process early to avoid the stress of crunch time or worse having to miss the event due to your documentation not being returned in time.
For more information about the process see the below:
