Travel Tips Tuesday!
Q: Are you traveling soon and need to get a passport book quickly?
A: You can expedite your application without using a courier to receive a passport book back within 2-3 weeks for an additional $60. Courier's often charge hundreds of dollars in addition to the expedite fee that you don't need to pay. There is also an option of going to the Buffalo Passport Processing Center if you need the passport sooner than the 2-3 weeks. Contact our office for more information, 585-265-3770.

Passport Processing
The Village of Webster can process your passport application during normal business hours from 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday with extended hours on Thursday evenings until 6:00 PM. No appointment is necessary which is a great convenience for families with busy schedules. It's important to note that both parents or legal guardians must be present for children under 16 years old.
Adult passport renewals will only be processed if the photo is taken here. Adult renewals are not subject to the $35 processing fee and you may send them in on your own; the Village will send the application in for you as a courtesy for getting the photo done in our office.
Checks are the preferred payment method (generally 2 per application are required) however, we also accept cash and money orders. Debit and credit cards are accepted but a 3% fee will be applied to the total.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are filling out your application before arrival, please make sure you use BLACK INK ONLY. If you fill it out online, please print 1 sided pages. Also, filling in the Social Security number on the application is a requirement. Please come prepared.
