📖 About this office
The Dallas County District Clerk's downtown passport acceptance office is located inside the George L. Allen, Sr. Courts Building at 600 Commerce Street in the heart of the Dallas Central Business District. As an authorized acceptance facility, this office processes first-time and minor passport applications on behalf of the U.S. Department of State, serving residents across Dallas County.
Walk-in applicants are welcome Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., while scheduled appointments are available between 8:15 a.m. and 3:45 p.m. on weekdays. Passport photos are taken on-site for a nominal fee, making this a convenient one-stop location for most applicants downtown. Bring all required documentation — proof of citizenship, valid government-issued photo ID, and the completed DS-11 form — to ensure a smooth visit.
Positioned just blocks from Dallas City Hall and the Arts District, this facility is easily accessible by DART rail and bus routes, making it the go-to option for applicants working or living in central Dallas.

💡 Good to know
Dallas is one of the few U.S. cities with its own dedicated passport agency — the Dallas Passport Agency at 1100 Commerce St, Suite 1120 — which handles emergency and urgent travel needs by appointment only. If your trip is within 14 days, contact them directly rather than visiting an acceptance facility. For routine applications, this downtown District Clerk office offers one of the most accessible walk-in windows in Dallas County. Photocopy services are available at this location, so you do not need to arrive with pre-made copies of your documents. See all options in our Dallas passport offices guide.
