📖 About this office

The Gateway Station Post Office sits on the east side of Lincoln at 6401 Q Street, tucked into a suite near the Gateway shopping district. It is one of the busier USPS passport acceptance points in Lincoln, handling routine first-time applications for residents across Lancaster County who prefer a full-service postal branch over the university office.

Staff here accept completed Form DS-11 applications for new adult and minor passport books and cards, verify your identity and supporting documents, witness your signature, and forward the sealed packet to the State Department. Passport photos are taken on site, so you can arrive without one already printed.

Because federal acceptance work is scheduled, the branch runs both booked appointments and a limited number of shorter walk-in windows during the week. Confirm your slot through the USPS scheduler before you drive over, and bring your citizenship evidence plus a photo ID with a photocopy of each.

💡 Good to know

Minor applicants under 16 need both parents or legal guardians present, or the correct consent paperwork, so plan the visit around everyone's schedule. If the Q Street slots are full, the other Lincoln acceptance office at the University of Nebraska is a short drive away and also open to the general public.
