Common US passport renewal FAQ

Yes. If you have a passport and are eligible to use Form DS-82, you may qualify for a passport renewal by mail, even if it is your first passport.

  • Can I renew my US passport if it is still valid?

Yes. Your passport doesn’t need to be expired for you to renew it. Click2Visas highly suggests renewing your passport well before any planned international travel, even if it is still valid for a few months. Some nations need your passport to be valid for at least six months beyond your trip dates.

  • Can I renew my US passport if it is already expired?

Yes, but the passport must be no older than 15 years.

  • Can I use a valid visa with my old passport once I renew my passport?

When the passport center has finished printing your passport, they will mail it to you and return your supporting documents.
