📖 About this office
The Fort Collins City Clerk's Office occupies City Hall at 300 Laporte Avenue in the heart of Old Town, steps from the historic downtown square. For applicants who work or live near the civic center, it is the most walkable place in the city to lodge a first-time passport application.
The clerk's team serves as a federally designated acceptance agent: they witness your signature, confirm your identity and citizenship documents, and seal the packet for delivery to the U.S. Department of State. On-site passport photos are typically available, so you can finish the DS-11 and the photo in a single downtown stop.
Appointments are required and can fill quickly around peak travel seasons. If the calendar is tight here, the nearby county and post office counters in Fort Collins give you additional same-city options.
💡 Good to know
A document-sealing fee is collected here in addition to the State Department fees, so bring a second form of payment. Since this is an acceptance agent and not an issuing office, your finished passport is mailed to you, not handed over at the counter. Prefer a county option?
