📖 About this office

Library staff certified as acceptance agents process complete DS-11 application packets, confirm original citizenship documents, witness signatures, collect the required fees payable to the U.S. Department of State, and forward sealed applications. Each appointment is scheduled for 30 minutes per applicant, and booking is done through the PGCMLS website or by calling the branch directly.

Like all PGCMLS branches, New Carrollton is set to discontinue passport acceptance services on September 30, 2026. Adelphi residents should verify current appointment availability and consider the Landover Hills Post Office as an alternative. See the Adelphi passport guide and the broader Maryland passport directory for the full range of area options.
