Disclosure

For over 25 years, Passport Visas Express (PassportVisasExpress.com) has been a privately owned passport and visa courier, serving customers nationwide through our offices. We are not a government agency and are not part of, or endorsed by, the U.S. Department of State, any U.S. passport agency, or any foreign embassy or consulate.

We are a courier company registered with the U.S. Department of State to deliver passport applications to passport agencies on our customers' behalf. You can confirm this on the State Department's list of registered courier companies, where we are listed as “Passport & Visa Express.”

You can apply for a U.S. passport yourself, without our service, through the U.S. Department of State at travel.state.gov, including expedited service for an additional government fee. Our fees are for our own services and are charged in addition to all government, embassy and consular fees. Processing times are set by the government agency or embassy that issues your document.

Insurance notice: Passport Visas Express maintains liability insurance covering the passport applications in our care. For written details of our coverage, call 1-888-596-6028 or email info@passportvisasexpress.com.
