Pueblo County Clerk And Recorder

The Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder's office, located in the historic Pueblo County Courthouse complex at 215 W. 10th Street in downtown Pueblo, is an authorized passport acceptance facility serving residents of Pueblo County. As a county government office, it offers an alternative to USPS passport acceptance for first-time applicants and those applying for minors — particularly useful for people who need flexible scheduling or prefer working with county staff.

The Clerk and Recorder's office handles a wide range of civic functions, including elections administration, vital records, and motor vehicle registration, alongside its passport acceptance role. Applicants for passports must arrive with a completed DS-11 form (unsigned), original proof of citizenship, valid photo ID, two recent passport photos, and payment for both the application and acceptance fees. Call ahead or check the county website to confirm current passport appointment availability and office hours before your visit.

Applicants who prefer in-person guidance from a county staff member often find the Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder a comfortable option compared to a busy post office. Note that if travel is imminent and you need expedited service within two weeks, the passport must ultimately be processed through a regional agency — the closest is the Denver Passport Agency, reachable via I-25 North in about 1 hour 45 minutes. See the Pueblo passport offices page for all options in the area.
