📖 About this office
The Town Clerk's Office at the Colchester Town Offices on Blakely Road is the town's designated spot for submitting a passport application, and it handles far more than travel documents—land records, vital records, dog licensing, and elections all run through the same counter. Because staff process everything under one roof, first-time applicants and families often find it a calmer alternative to a busy post office window.
Passport applications here are handled strictly by appointment, so call ahead at (802) 264-5520 to reserve a time before you arrive. Come fully prepared: the office notes that showing up without the correct documents can cost you your slot. The clerk can also take your passport photo on site, and no appointment is needed just to pick up renewal-by-mail forms or have a renewal photo taken.
This is one of the offices featured on our Colchester passport page, and it sits within easy reach of the wider network of acceptance sites across Vermont.
💡 Good to know
Bring proof of citizenship, a valid photo ID, and a photocopy of that ID; the $35 acceptance fee is separate from the State Department application fee. Routine turnaround runs about 4–6 weeks and expedited roughly 2–3 weeks. If your travel is only days away, this counter cannot rush it—see the options on the Colchester overview for the nearest federal agency.
