📖 About this office
Handling the entire visit under one roof, the Hammond Post Office in the downtown railroad district is the city's most convenient passport stop. As a USPS acceptance agent it witnesses your signature, seals your DS-11 packet, and — unlike the nearby Clerk of Court — takes and prints your 2x2 passport photo on site, so you don't need a separate studio appointment. It's a first-application and child-passport office, not a renewal-by-mail counter, which suits Hammond's steady stream of students at nearby Southeastern Louisiana University.
Passport service here is by appointment only, booked through the USPS scheduler rather than by walking in. Comparing the two? The other Hammond acceptance point a block away skips photos, and the easiest place to find the federal fee schedule and document list is our Louisiana passport page.
💡 Good to know
Book your slot at the USPS online scheduler before you arrive — passport service isn't handled at the regular retail line. Because photos are done here, plan to walk out with everything sealed in one visit. Compare it with the Clerk of Court option if you already have a studio photo.
