📖 About this office
The Bronx General Post Office anchors the southern end of the Grand Concourse, the borough's iconic Art Deco boulevard, and serves as the flagship USPS passport acceptance facility for the South Bronx. Situated near Yankee Stadium and the 161st Street subway hub, this post office draws applicants from across the lower Bronx who want a central, transit-accessible location for first-time passport applications and child passport submissions.
Acceptance agents here process applications for both adults and minors, verify identity documents, and collect the federal application fee before forwarding completed packages to a regional passport processing center. Appointment scheduling is handled through the official USPS Retail Customer Appointment Scheduler at usps.com/passport, and passport photos are available on site for an additional fee.
The Grand Concourse location is well served by the B, D, and 4 subway lines, making it reachable from virtually anywhere in the Bronx and from upper Manhattan in well under 30 minutes. Applicants who need travel documents in a hurry should note that routine processing takes several weeks; only same-day or imminent departures qualify for an urgent appointment at the Bronx passport offices guide or at the New York Passport Agency in Manhattan.
💡 Good to know
This is the largest USPS facility in the South Bronx and processes a high volume of passport applications, so booking your appointment well in advance is strongly advised — peak season slots fill weeks ahead.
