Get Your Passport Pages Application Here

To start the process click the link above. You will be taken to the US Department of State's online application. Initially, you will have to click the box to approve the privacy and disclaimer policies to get started.

It will prompt you with required information that you can fill out electronically on your computer. This is just standard personal information needed to fill out the application. You will then be asked if you want regular processing or if you want to pay more for expedite processing.

One last tricky step is creating and printing the form. For some reason, they have put too many options on the final page which can trip people up. To print out your form before losing your work, go to the bottom and check the agreement box. Then click "Create Form" in the lower left corner. After that you will be prompted to print out your application.

2012 Passport Pages Requirements

Here is how to make sure you have the necessary required documents to accompany your additional passport pages application.

• Your passport needs to be in reasonably good condition. If it is damaged then you most likely will have to get a US passport renewal. Also if it is expiring soon, it is best to just get a renewed passport.
• The processing center can be somewhat picky and strict about everything being exactly the way they want it. So make sure not to miss any small things like your signature on the application. If it is missing there is a good chance your application will be rejected or delayed.
• The regular processing fee is $82 made payable by your own personal check to the US Department of State. Regular processing usually takes more or less around two months. Some people get it pretty fast but sometimes unfortunately other people have to wait more than a couple of months.

  You have the option of paying an extra $60 for expedite processing in which you will get your passport normally within three weeks. If you need it faster then that, inquire with the passport expedite services listed below so they can help you out.

Passport Expedite Services

There are numerous passport expedite services available. Take some time to read reviews to make sure you are hiring a reputable company to handle your travel documents.

I recommend VisaHQ Passport Service. Since 2003 VisaHQ.com, Inc. has provided online passport expedite service. Using unmatched, cutting-edge online technologies customers can apply for their travel documents simply by filling out one universal, 100% paperless electronic form.

Frequently Asked: Passport Pages FAQ

How do I go about adding extra passport pages if I am overseas an extended amount of time? Your best bet would be to visit the US consulate that is closest to you in the country you are staying. That should provide you with a solution instead of mailing your passport back to the US and possibly having complications with getting it back in time.

How many visa pages does a country require to stamp in their visa? This all depends on which country is issuing the visa. Surprisingly there is not any real cooperation between countries on how to handle this. You will have to check first with the requirements of the country you are traveling to. Some countries like Vietnam only require one blank page. While others require two, sometimes three blank pages even though they want use them all.

After adding extra passport pages and getting ready to plan your exciting vacation, you will need to do some flight comparisons. Do try to keep in mind not just price comparisons but also taking a look at the overall flight time. Some international flights have long wait times with transfers which can be quite the strain on your patience.

Also consider the reviews of past travelers to see how comfortable the planes are with that airline. How much legroom will you have, how many seats are in the plane? If you are going to be on a long flight then comfort should definitely factor into the price.
