If it is MORE than one year since the date of issue, you must submit Form DS-82 (or DS-11, if appropriate) and pay the applicable fees. Of course, no fees are required when the cause is a printing error by Passport Services. For more information on Form DS-82, click here.

If your old passport is lost or stolen or if you cannot provide a certified marriage certificate you may need to use application form DSP 11 and possibly the lost passport affadavit form DSP 64. In either of these cases you will have to apply in person at your local Passport Agency.

• DSP 11 - application
• DSP 64 - lost/stolen
• DSP 82 - application by mail
