To acquire a Second Passport, we'd like to help you get started in the right direction. Don't be overwhelmed. We are here to assist you each step of the way.

First, you will need to complete one government form (called the DS-82), as well as what we call an LOA (stands for Letter Of Authorization... it authorizes us to process your passport paperwork). Then download and complete the PassportMax Order Form with payment information and fax it to us at: (512) 469-5951.

(Click each item for more detail):

Complete, download & print the DS-82 Form.

Here is the link: http://travel.state.gov/passport/forms/ds82/ds82_843.html. This form must be completed online, printed and then signed. * IMPORTANT: Must print and complete 2 copies of the LOA.

Complete our LOA (Letter Of Authorization).

The Letter Of Authorization simply enables us to act in the capacity necessary to resolve and answer any problems that may arise, to submit your passport application and to pick up your passport (and any related documents) when it has been issued by the Passport Agency. Get LOA here.

We need a Statement requesting a Second Limited Passport.

Be sure to sign. See our sample here.

We need your most recent passport.

Needs at least two years of validity remaining. Passport must be signed. VERY IMPORTANT: Affix a note to your picture page stating "Do not cancel this passport."

We need 2 passport photographs.

Must be recent, identical and 2x2 inches.

We need a copy of your travel itinerary.

A copy of either your airline ticket(s) or flight itinerary will serve as the required proof regarding your departure date. NOTE: Itineraries must show conflicting trips (which shows need for a Second Passport).

We need your $170 check made payable to the U.S. Dept. of State, as well as a $25 CASH execution fee to the Acceptance Agent.

This is the government fee. Your payment to us is for expediting of the processing of your paperwork, but the Federal Government will still require its standard fees for Lost or Stolen Passport Replacement. NOTE: Please indicate your Date of Birth in the memo field of your check.

We need your payment to us.

Download and complete the PassportMax Order Form with your payment information and fax it to: (512) 469-5951. Payment is $250.00 for 24 hours, $200.00 for 2-5 days, $100.00 for 6-11 days, $60.00 for 12-15 days. We accept American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover or payment by check.


Now, if you are certain that you have followed and completed all of the above steps, gather everything together and head to your nearest Fed-Ex drop off location. Click Here to locate a nearby Fed-Ex drop off location.

For 24-Hour RUSH Service, package MUST be Fed-Ex'ed (using Fed-Ex First 8:30 a.m. delivery).

Be sure to save your Fed-Ex Tracking ID!
