📖 About this office
The Daviess County Clerk's Office at 212 St Ann Street, Room 104, gives Owensboro residents a government-run alternative to the post office for passport applications. Housed in the county administration building downtown, the clerk's staff routinely accept DS-11 forms, verify birth certificates and identification, and mail completed applications on your behalf.
Because the office already handles vital records, marriage licenses, and vehicle titles for the county, many locals find it convenient to fold a passport visit into an errand they were making anyway. Passport acceptance is best arranged in advance, and it is worth calling to confirm whether the clerk prefers appointments or accepts walk-ins on the day you plan to come.
This counter is especially useful for families applying together, since minors under 16 must appear in person with both parents or guardians. Compare it against the nearby Owensboro post office options to decide which works best for your household.
💡 Good to know
Since this is a county office rather than a USPS branch, passport photo service may not be offered on site, so ask when you call and be ready to bring a compliant photo. Payment for the government passport fee must be a check or money order made out to the U.S. Department of State. If the clerk's schedule is full, the Owensboro post offices are only minutes away.
