📖 About this office
The Miami Beach Main Post Office on Washington Avenue sits at the southern end of Miami Beach, a few blocks from the Art Deco Historic District and steps from the pedestrian energy of South Beach. As a USPS passport acceptance facility, it handles DS-11 applications for first-time adult and child passports — the kind of service that complements the neighborhood where international travel is a way of life rather than an occasional event.
Appointments are required and can be booked through the USPS scheduling tool at tools.usps.com. The office processes both routine and expedited applications, collecting the completed DS-11 form, supporting identity documents, and the applicable government fees. Travelers who have already used a passport and qualify for DS-82 renewal by mail can drop off their renewal packet here as well.
Given its South Beach location, this office tends to stay busy — especially in spring and early summer when demand peaks ahead of summer travel. Booking your slot at least two to three weeks out is a practical move. Miami-Dade County residents heading to Miami Beach from elsewhere in Florida will find this one of the most conveniently placed USPS acceptance points in the region.
💡 Good to know
Wednesday mornings are the only time this location accepts walk-ins without a prior booking — a useful option if your schedule is unpredictable. For every other slot, use the USPS Retail Customer Appointment Scheduler at tools.usps.com before arriving. Passport photos are not taken on-site, so bring two compliant 2×2-inch photos with you. For applicants with travel within 14 days, skip the post office entirely and contact the Miami Passport Agency at 1501 Biscayne Blvd — it is only about 2 miles away and handles genuine emergencies by appointment.
