📖 About this office
The Tacoma Downtown Station Post Office sits at 1102 A Street, a block off Pacific Avenue in the heart of the city's revived downtown core. For residents of central Tacoma and the Stadium and Hilltop neighborhoods, it is the most convenient federal passport acceptance counter, handling the in-person steps that first-time applicants and families with minors cannot complete by mail.
Clerks here process the DS-11 application: they verify your identity, witness your signature, and seal your citizenship evidence into the envelope that travels to the State Department. Because this is a downtown branch, appointments fill fast, so book a slot through the USPS scheduler well before any trip. If you already hold an eligible adult passport, you may not need to visit at all — renewals by mail are covered on our Tacoma passport page.
💡 Good to know
This branch does not take passport photos on site, so arrive with a compliant 2x2 photo already in hand. Metered parking runs along A Street and Commerce Street. For other counters across the county, see the Washington passport offices overview.
