📖 About this office
For applicants near Accokeek who can't find an open post-office appointment, the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Prince George's County runs a genuine county passport acceptance service at the courthouse in Upper Marlboro, roughly 25 minutes northeast. As a government office rather than a nonprofit, it's unaffected by the 2026 policy that ended acceptance at nonprofit libraries, making it one of the more dependable in-county choices going forward.
Applications are taken on select weekdays, by appointment only, so call ahead before making the drive. The clerk's staff witness signatures and forward completed DS-11 packets to the State Department, the same acceptance role handled at the Accokeek post office. Ahead of your visit, look over what to bring and the fees on the Maryland passport page.
💡 Good to know
Call 301-952-5264 to confirm the current acceptance days and to reserve a time, since the schedule is limited and courthouse parking and security screening add a few minutes. Bring your original supporting documents plus photocopies. If Upper Marlboro doesn't fit your route, the closer Accokeek office may have earlier openings.
