📖 About this office

The Downtown Station post office sits at 615 East Houston Street, a block off the River Walk and within walking distance of the Alamo, making it the natural stop for travelers and Bexar County residents who work or live near the city center. Its acceptance agents handle first-time passport books and cards, applications for children, and the paperwork that must be witnessed in person rather than mailed.

Because this branch anchors the busy downtown core, its passport counter runs largely by appointment. You submit a completed Form DS-11 here, present proof of citizenship and photo identity, sign in front of the agent, and pay the two required fees before your packet is sealed and sent to the State Department. Photos can usually be taken on site.

If you are comparing downtown options against post offices in other parts of the city, our San Antonio passport page lays out every listed acceptance point together.

💡 Good to know

Parking downtown is limited, so allow extra time to reach the counter. Renewals of an undamaged adult passport go by mail and do not need an in-person visit here; see the wider list on our San Antonio guide if this branch is fully booked.
