Passport Acceptance Offices in Medfield, Massachusetts

Medfield is a small, leafy town in Norfolk County, about 17 miles southwest of Boston, and getting a U.S. passport here is refreshingly straightforward. Everyday applications are handled at the local post office on North Street, which accepts new passports and passports for children by appointment. It's the practical choice for first-time applicants and families who don't want to drive into the city.

Because Medfield sits so close to Boston, residents also have easy access to fuller service when a trip is imminent. Routine and expedited applications start right here in town, while anyone facing international travel within two weeks can book the regional passport agency in Boston.

If you'd rather compare nearby towns, neighboring Millis, Norfolk and Dover all fall within a short drive, but the Medfield acceptance office is the most convenient starting point for local residents. Remember that acceptance offices witness and forward your application — they don't print the passport itself.

Appointments fill up faster around spring break and early summer, so book a few weeks ahead if you can. Bring an unsigned application, proof of citizenship, a photo ID and a compliant passport photo — the Medfield post office can take the photo on site.
