📖 About this office
The Minneapolis Main Post Office anchors the city's downtown postal network along the Mississippi riverfront, just blocks from the central business district. The facility accepts first-time passport applications, child passports, and replacement documents at its dedicated acceptance window in Room 106. Applicants bring completed DS-11 forms, proof of citizenship, a government-issued photo ID, and a separate check payable to the U.S. Department of State.
Appointments are required and can be scheduled through the USPS Retail Customer Appointment Scheduler at tools.usps.com. Walk-ins are not accepted, so booking in advance is essential, particularly during the busy spring travel season. The post office is convenient to Metro Transit bus lines and the METRO Blue and Green light-rail lines, with stops at Warehouse District/Hennepin Avenue station a short walk away.
Passport photos are available on-site, making this a one-stop location for applicants who haven't yet had photos taken. For more passport resources serving the Twin Cities area, see the Minnesota passport offices overview or explore all Minneapolis acceptance locations.
💡 Good to know
This is one of the busiest passport acceptance sites in the Twin Cities metro, so appointment slots fill quickly in winter through spring. Book your slot several weeks ahead if possible. Bring a personal check or money order made payable to the U.S. Department of State — the post office cannot accept credit cards for the government fee portion.
