Allegheny County Department Of Court Records

The Allegheny County Department of Court Records, housed in the historic City-County Building at 414 Grant Street in downtown Pittsburgh, is one of the most accessible and well-established passport acceptance points in the greater Pittsburgh region. Coraopolis residents willing to make the roughly 15-mile drive east along Route 60 and I-376 will find a county office staffed by experienced acceptance agents who routinely process DS-11 applications for first-time applicants and families.

Unlike USPS locations where hours fluctuate, this county office maintains weekday acceptance hours within a government building that has served Allegheny County since 1917. The facility accepts only personal check or money order for the county acceptance fee, payable to the Allegheny County Treasurer; the State Department fee is separate. Applications for new adult passports, minor passports, and replacements for lost or damaged travel documents are all accepted here.

For Coraopolis-area residents exploring all available options, the Coraopolis passport page outlines both local and regional acceptance facilities. A full listing of acceptance points across the state appears on the Pennsylvania passport offices directory.

The Allegheny County Department of Court Records accepts only personal check or money order for its acceptance fee — cash and credit cards are not accepted for the county portion. The U.S. Department of State fee (payable by check or money order to 'U.S. Department of State') is separate. Bring a completed but unsigned DS-11, proof of U.S. citizenship (original documents only), a valid government-issued photo ID, one compliant passport photo, and both fees. Parking near the Grant Street courthouse can be limited during weekday hours; consider public transit from the western suburbs via Port Authority of Allegheny County bus routes.
