Meeker County Auditor's Office

Inside the Meeker County Government Center at 114 N Holcombe Ave, Suite 150, the county Auditor's office doubles as a passport acceptance agent for local residents. It is a convenient stop if you are already handling county business such as property taxes, licenses, or elections, since you can fold a passport application into the same trip downtown.

Staff here accept completed DS-11 forms for first-time applicants, children, and anyone who cannot renew by mail. They verify your citizenship evidence and identification, witness your signature, and forward the package to the State Department. An appointment is requested, and applications are not taken late in the afternoon, so call ahead at (320) 693-5440 to confirm the day's cutoff before you arrive.

Between this county office and the nearby post office, most Litchfield applicants have two easy choices; the Litchfield passport overview lays out which one may suit your timing.

Applications are typically not accepted late in the day, so plan a morning or early-afternoon visit and call (320) 693-5440 first. Bring an original citizenship document with a photocopy and a government photo ID. To weigh this against other county and postal acceptance sites, browse Minnesota passport locations.
