📖 About this office
The Lakewood Main Post Office on West Alameda Avenue is the busiest USPS passport acceptance point on this side of Jefferson County, sitting a short drive west of downtown near the Belmar and Villa Italia corridors. Clerks here review first-time adult applications, all minor applications, and name-change or lost/stolen cases that cannot be renewed by mail, then forward the sealed packet to the State Department on your behalf.
Because passport acceptance runs on a scheduled basis rather than a walk-up window, you reserve a slot online before arriving so a clerk is set aside to witness your oath and check your citizenship evidence. If you are weighing this branch against the downtown option, our Lakewood passport guide lays out both side by side.
💡 Good to know
Bring an unsigned application, proof of citizenship plus a photocopy, and a government photo ID; minors under 16 need both parents present or the correct consent form. The State Department fee and the USPS acceptance fee are paid separately, so carry a check for the larger federal amount. For the municipal alternative a few miles east, see the City of Lakewood clerk option.
