Applying for a Passport

Many tourists traveling overseas for the first time have questions about how and where to apply for a passport. Listed below is useful information from the U.S. Department of State that should answer most of your passport questions. For more information on passports, visit the U.S. Department of State website at http://travel.state.gov. When traveling abroad, you will need a passport and possibly a visa, depending on the country you are going to visit. Travel documents, after September 11th, have become extremely important and the U.S. is now issuing new state-of-the-art passports. The new passport incorporates a digitized image with other enhanced security features that make it one of the most secure travel documents produced anywhere in the world. Getting these more secure passports into circulation will help minimize the misuse of American passports by criminals, terrorists, and others.
