📖 About this office
Inside City Hall on West Michigan Avenue, the Lansing City Clerk's Office provides passport acceptance in the heart of downtown, steps from the Capitol. It's the most central option in the city and easy to combine with other errands in the government district.
The clerk's staff accept DS-11 applications for first-time adult and child passports and route them to the U.S. Department of State. Periodic after-hours passport sessions give working applicants an evening alternative to the standard weekday schedule.
For applicants weighing downtown versus the suburbs, this office and the other Lansing acceptance sites together cover both Ingham and Eaton County sides of the metro.
💡 Good to know
Bring proof of citizenship (certified birth certificate or prior passport) and a valid photo ID, and expect the standard two-payment structure. Downtown parking fills fast on weekdays, so allow extra time. If a slot here is hard to get, check the wider list of Michigan passport offices.
