Clerk of Circuit Court, Maury County

The Clerk of Circuit Court for Maury County accepts passport applications inside the historic courthouse on Public Square, right in the middle of downtown Columbia. As a designated acceptance agent, the clerk's staff review your DS-11, check your identity and proof of citizenship, administer the oath, and package your file for the State Department.

This is a convenient stop if you are already downtown handling records, court business, or a visit to another county department. Parking around the square puts you steps from the door, and county acceptance agents often work standard weekday hours, though it is smart to call ahead since passport acceptance may pause during busy court dockets.

Call before you visit to confirm the clerk is accepting passport applications that day and whether an appointment is preferred. Photo service is not always offered at courthouse counters, so you may need to have your passport photo taken at the Columbia Post Office first.
