📖 About this office
The Allegheny County Department of Court Records runs a passport acceptance window inside the City-County Building at 436 Grant Street, in the middle of Downtown Pittsburgh's Golden Triangle. It is the county's own acceptance point rather than a post office, which makes it a natural stop for anyone already handling deeds, court filings, or other county business on Grant Street.
Staff here are authorized by the U.S. Department of State to review a DS-11 form, witness your signature, verify your citizenship documents and identity, and forward the packet for processing. Because it sits in the courthouse complex, parking is metered street parking or nearby garages, and the office keeps regular county business hours.
If the courthouse timing doesn't fit your schedule, several USPS branches around the city also accept applications; see the full list on our Pittsburgh passport office page.
💡 Good to know
Call 412-350-6071 before you go to confirm the schedule and whether an appointment is needed, since court-building access can vary. Bring your own passport photo, as this county office does not always take photos on site the way a post office does. Applying elsewhere in the region?
