Accokeek Post Office

The Accokeek Post Office on Livingston Road is the community's closest passport acceptance point, tucked into the small commercial cluster that serves this southern corner of Prince George's County. Like most USPS branches, it accepts passport applications by appointment only, so you can't simply walk in during regular retail hours and expect to be seen at the passport counter. It's the natural first stop for residents applying for a first passport or a child's booklet without driving into the District.

An acceptance agent here reviews your DS-11, checks your identification, witnesses your signature, and mails the packet to the State Department for processing. This is an acceptance office, not an agency, so nothing gets rushed at the counter; on a short timeline, weigh the other Accokeek-area choices or read the turnaround notes on the Maryland passport page.

Book your slot through the USPS passport scheduler rather than relying on a walk-in, and arrive with your documents already photocopied to keep the appointment short. Ask when you book whether photos are taken here, since some smaller branches send applicants elsewhere for the photo. If nothing is open soon, the Upper Marlboro court office listed on our Accokeek page is a good backup.
