📖 About this office
The Bangor Post Office on Hammond Street has served as Penobscot County's primary federal mail hub for decades and doubles as a full passport acceptance facility. Located a short walk from downtown Bangor's business district, the office processes DS-11 applications for first-time adult and child applicants and coordinates document forwarding directly to the National Passport Processing Center.
Acceptance appointments are handled by appointment at the USPS Passport Appointment Scheduler, so applicants should book well in advance of any planned international travel. Staff can review your application packet, witness your oath, and collect the required government execution fee. Photo services may be available on-site — confirm when booking your slot.
For applicants across Penobscot County, this Hammond Street location sits near major bus routes and offers ample street parking, making it one of the most accessible passport submission points in central Maine. Explore the full range of Bangor passport offices or compare options across the Maine passport offices directory.
💡 Good to know
All USPS passport appointments must be scheduled in advance — walk-ins are not accepted. Bring your completed DS-11 form, original proof of citizenship (certified birth certificate or prior passport), a valid government-issued photo ID, and a separate check or money order payable to the U.S. Department of State. Children under 16 require both parents or legal guardians to appear together. For a full list of acceptance locations in the region, visit the Bangor passport page.
