📖 About this office
The USPS Federal Building Station in downtown Juneau sits inside the historic Federal Building complex at 709 W. 9th Street, placing it steps from Alaska's state capitol and the Gastineau Channel waterfront. This post office has served as the anchor passport acceptance point for Juneau residents and state government workers for decades, accepting applications for new books, first-time passports, and child passports on behalf of the U.S. Department of State.
Applicants visiting this location should schedule an appointment through the USPS Retail Customer Appointment Scheduler at tools.usps.com/rcas/ before arriving. Bring your completed DS-11 form, proof of U.S. citizenship, a valid photo ID, and two passport photos — photos are not taken on-site, so arrange them in advance at a pharmacy or print shop. The acceptance agent reviews and witnesses your application signature, then forwards the package to a regional processing center.
