📖 About this office
Tempe Apache Station is a compact USPS branch at 1962 E Apache Blvd, a short hop from the Apache Boulevard light-rail corridor and the southern reaches of the ASU campus. It handles passport acceptance for first-time applicants and others who cannot renew by mail, in addition to its everyday mail and shipping counter.
Because the station is small, passport service runs strictly by appointment. Call the branch at 480-929-0180 before you go so a clerk is set aside to witness your Form DS-11 and check your citizenship paperwork. Walk-in passport requests are generally turned away when the counter is busy.
The station's east-Tempe location makes it a practical choice for students and residents near Apache Boulevard who want to avoid the heavier traffic around the main office on Southern Avenue.
💡 Good to know
Phone ahead: appointments fill quickly at this small station and drop-ins are usually declined. If the slot you need is taken, the larger Tempe passport offices nearby may have earlier openings. Renewals that qualify for Form DS-82 can be mailed and do not require an in-person visit.
