📖 About this office
The Stanton Post Office on Harmon Avenue is a designated USPS passport acceptance facility in the heart of this small Mercer County town. Staff here handle the mandatory in-person step for first-time adults, minors, and anyone replacing a lost or stolen passport: they check your citizenship and ID documents, witness your signature on the DS-11, and mail the sealed packet to the State Department. It is one of two Stanton acceptance offices, alongside the county courthouse.
Because this is a rural branch, passport service runs on limited windows rather than all day, so planning around the posted times matters. When the post office windows don't work for you, the Mercer County District Court is the nearby fallback, and the statewide North Dakota passport guide names what to bring before you leave.
💡 Good to know
The Stanton branch does not offer passport photos, so arrive with a compliant photo already taken. Passport windows are narrow at this small office, so confirm availability by phone or through the USPS scheduler first; the courthouse on Arthur Street is the backup if timing is tight. See the Stanton offices overview to compare the two.
