📖 About this office
Run by the Washington County Clerk of Courts, the Title Division on Gross Street doubles as a county-operated passport acceptance office for people living in and around Marietta. It offers an alternative to the downtown post office, which some applicants find convenient when they are already handling title work or other county business.
As an official acceptance agent, the office reviews your documents, witnesses the DS-11 signature, and seals the packet before it is mailed to the State Department. It handles new applications for adults and minors as well as cases where a book was lost, stolen, or damaged. Standard federal processing times apply, so plan several weeks ahead of any planned trip.
If you want to weigh this county office against the USPS branch, our Marietta passport page lays out both, and you can find agents in other communities through the Ohio directory.
💡 Good to know
Calling ahead is wise, especially during peak summer and holiday travel seasons when demand climbs across Marietta. This is a title-office setting rather than a photo studio, so check whether passport photos are offered before you arrive, and be ready with proof of citizenship, a government photo ID, a photocopy of that ID, and fee payment.
