📖 About this office
Union Station sits on the first floor of the Popp Martin Student Union at UNC Charlotte, and its passport window is open to everyone — not just students. Run by the university's Auxiliary Services, it is a designated U.S. passport acceptance facility, so an agent reviews your documents, witnesses your signature, and forwards the application on your behalf.
Appointments run Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and are required for the general public. Students, faculty and staff also get a campus-only walk-in window in the early afternoon, but neighbors from around the Charlotte metro should book ahead. Passport photos are offered on site for a small cash fee, which is handy for first-time applicants.
For anyone living or working near University City, this is often a quieter alternative to the busier post offices, and it appears alongside them on the Charlotte passport office guide and the wider North Carolina passport directory.
💡 Good to know
Enter through the Popp Martin Student Union; the passport desk is Suite 123 on the first floor. Photos are cash only, so bring exact change if you need one. Members of the public should reserve an appointment, since the afternoon walk-in slot is reserved for the campus community. See the rest of the Charlotte options if a post office suits you better.
