📖 About this office
The Fayetteville Main Post Office sits at 12 W. Dickson Street, right where the University of Arkansas campus spills into the restaurants and music venues of the Dickson Street entertainment district. Its central-city address makes it the default stop for students, faculty and downtown residents who need to file a first-time passport application without driving to the edge of town.
As a USPS passport acceptance facility, this office handles the applications that must be submitted in person: brand-new adult passports, passports for children and any case where you cannot renew by mail. Staff witness your signature, verify your citizenship documents and seal the sealed application before forwarding it for processing. Passport photos are taken on site, so you can arrive with your paperwork and leave with a complete package.
Because Dickson Street parking fills quickly around class changes and weekend events, most applicants book an appointment through the USPS scheduler rather than relying on limited walk-in windows. For a full picture of your choices, compare this branch with the other counter listed on our Fayetteville passport page, or browse passport acceptance across Arkansas.
💡 Good to know
Bring an original citizenship document (certified birth certificate or naturalization certificate), a valid photo ID, a photocopy of that ID, and separate payment for the State Department fee and the acceptance fee. If you would rather apply away from the busy campus corridor, the Fayetteville Public Library also accepts applications. Both feed into the same national system described on our Arkansas passport guide.
