📖 About this office
The Scottsdale Main Post Office on North Scottsdale Road, just south of Osborn in the city's central corridor, is the busiest USPS-run passport acceptance point in Scottsdale. Acceptance agents here review first-time applications for adults and children, witness the required signatures, and forward the sealed packet to the U.S. Department of State, which prints and mails the actual passport book or card.
The counter is set up specifically for the DS-11 form, so it is the right stop for anyone applying for a passport for the very first time, for a child, or for anyone whose previous passport was lost, stolen, or issued before age 16. Straightforward renewals by eligible adults are handled by mail and do not require a visit here. A dedicated on-site parking lot off Scottsdale Road makes the trip easy for families arriving with strollers and paperwork.
This branch is one of two acceptance options within city limits; the other is the City of Scottsdale passport office at One Civic Center. Both feed into the same federal process, so applicants can pick whichever location and appointment window works better for their week.
💡 Good to know
Bring a certified birth certificate or prior passport as proof of citizenship, plus a government photo ID and a photocopy of that ID. The $130 application fee is payable to the U.S. Department of State by check or money order, while the separate $35 acceptance fee can go on a debit card, so plan for two forms of payment. If you are also weighing the downtown municipal counter, compare both on the Scottsdale passport page before you book.
