Fox Chase Post Office

Fox Chase Post Office serves the Fox Chase neighborhood in the far northeast section of Philadelphia, along Rising Sun Avenue at zip code 19111. Northeast Philly residents often contend with long drives into Center City for government services, making this acceptance office a genuinely local option for the dense residential corridors stretching from Burholme to Rhawnhurst.

Passport acceptance here is by appointment — the office has confirmed scheduling via its direct phone line at 215-745-2201. Agents witness first-time applications, applications for minor children, and replacements for lost or stolen passports. Completed applications are forwarded to the State Department processing center, with standard and expedited timeframes applying as they would at any accepted USPS office.

Applicants in the northeast quadrant who want to review all available options before choosing a location will find a comprehensive list at the Philadelphia passport offices page. For statewide planning context, the Pennsylvania passport guide covers processing centers, fees, and agency appointment eligibility across the commonwealth.

Fox Chase Post Office is notably less crowded than downtown USPS locations, which can make scheduling quicker during peak travel months. Call 215-745-2201 to confirm appointment availability and ask about current passport acceptance hours, as USPS schedules can shift seasonally.
