📖 About this office

The Fargo Main Post Office sits in the heart of downtown on 2nd Avenue North, a short walk from the historic Federal Building and the city's civic core. As the primary postal facility for North Dakota's largest city, it handles the bulk of passport traffic in the Fargo–Moorhead metro, serving downtown residents, nearby workers, and students traveling in from campus.

Staff here accept applications for new adult passports, first-time child passports, and replacements for lost or damaged books. They review your documents, witness your signature, take payment for the acceptance fee, and mail your completed application to the U.S. Department of State on your behalf.

💡 Good to know

Book your visit through the official USPS scheduler and arrive a few minutes early with your citizenship document, photo ID, and a photocopy of that ID. Payment is split — the State Department fee goes to the government, and a separate execution fee is paid at the counter. If your appointment slots here are full, check the Prairiewood Station office on the south side of the city.
