📖 About this office
The USPS Mount Vernon Post Office on Cleveland Avenue is the busiest passport acceptance point in the Skagit Valley, handling first-time applications for adults and children a short walk from the city's downtown core. Clerks here witness your signature, verify your citizenship documents, and forward the sealed application to a State Department processing facility.
This branch accepts passport applications by appointment, and slots fill quickly during spring and early summer when Skagit families plan trips abroad. Book ahead through the USPS Retail Customer Appointment Scheduler rather than assuming a walk-in slot will be open. Bring an unsigned application, proof of citizenship, a photo ID plus a photocopy, and separate payments for the State Department fee and the acceptance fee.
If this branch is fully booked, the Skagit County Clerk in Mount Vernon is another approved acceptance option only a few blocks away, and you can compare every verified location across the state on our Washington passport offices page.
💡 Good to know
Everyone named on an application must attend, including infants, and a child under 16 needs both parents or guardians present with the required consent. Photocopy your ID before you arrive, since acceptance agents cannot make copies for you. For the current fee schedule and to double-check what to bring, review the guidance on the Washington state passport page before your appointment.
