📖 About this office

Inside the historic courthouse district at 120 S. Cortez Street, the Yavapai County Clerk of Superior Court doubles as a passport acceptance office, giving Prescott residents a government alternative to the post office. The same clerks who manage court filings are designated to verify identity and witness signatures on federal passport applications, so first-time applicants and families can submit their DS-11 without leaving the county center.

Service here is by appointment, which fits the office's court-day rhythm and keeps waits short. It's a convenient choice if you're already downtown for other county business or prefer a quieter setting than a busy retail post office window.

This clerk's counter is the second acceptance option featured on our Prescott passport guide. Residents elsewhere in the state can compare nearby counties through the Arizona passport directory.

💡 Good to know

Because this office does not take passport photos, arrive with a compliant 2x2 photo already in hand. Bring your unsigned DS-11, proof of U.S. citizenship with a photocopy, and a valid photo ID; minors under 16 need both parents present or the proper consent documentation. If a court appointment slot doesn't fit your schedule, the nearby Prescott Main Post Office is the other in-town option.

⭐ Services

New adult passport
Child/minor passport
Passport renewal (by-mail guidance)
Signature witnessing on Form DS-11
