📖 About this office
The Belleville Post Office at 120 W Washington Street is the downtown USPS branch closest to the city center, sitting just a block from Public Square. As a designated passport acceptance facility, it accepts first-time and minor passport applications and forwards them to the U.S. Department of State for processing.
Post office acceptance is handled by appointment, so reserve a time slot through the USPS scheduler rather than dropping in unannounced. Come with your unsigned Form DS-11, original proof of citizenship such as a certified birth certificate, a photo ID plus a photocopy, and two payments: one to the State Department and the acceptance fee to USPS. If you need a passport photo, ask whether this branch offers the service when you book.
Downtown parking can fill up around the courthouse, so families applying for children may find the roomier Dutch Hollow branch on the west side of Belleville a calmer option during busy hours.
💡 Good to know
Because USPS reviews and seals your documents at the counter, do not sign Form DS-11 in advance; the clerk must witness your signature. If this branch is fully booked, other Belleville acceptance offices may have earlier openings.
