📖 About this office
The Denton County Clerk accepts passport applications from the Courts Building at 1450 E. McKinney Street, a short hop east of the downtown Square. It's a full acceptance facility handling first-time adult applications, child passports and eligible renewals, and it takes passport photos on site for a small fee — so you can knock out the whole process in one visit. This is a natural choice if you're already downtown for other county business or live on the east side of Denton.
Appointments are required here, and the clerk releases new slots on a rolling seven-day window, so it's worth booking early if your travel date is fixed. Instead of going from memory, pull the federal fee schedule and the required ID documents from the Texas passport guide .
💡 Good to know
Free parking is available at the Courts Building, which makes this easier than hunting for a spot near the Square. Book ahead: appointment slots open seven calendar days in advance, and if nothing shows online it usually means the week isn't yet released. Prefer a walk-in?
