Clerk’s Office Processing Passport Applications

Going abroad this year?

Consider the total time it will take to get a passport when you are booking travel.  Routine service is estimated at 4-6 weeks but does not include mailing time.

The Daviess County Clerk’s Office is an approved Passport Acceptance Facility.  You must apply *in-person* if at least one of the following statements is true:

  • You are applying for your first U.S. passport
  • You are under age 16
  • Your previous U.S. passport was issued when you were under age 16
  • Your previous U.S. passport was lost, stolen, or damaged
  • Your previous U.S. passport was issued more than 15 years ago

Minors (age 15 and younger) require BOTH parents to be present as well.  Those 16-17 years of age must have one parent present.

Remember to bring a certified birth certificate from the state where you were born and a valid Kentucky driver’s license.

Two separate payments will be collected.  The fee to the State Department must be paid with a check or money order only.  The current fee for a U.S. passport book is $130 for adults, and $100 for children (15 and under).

The clerk’s office will assess a $35 execution fee along with an optional $15 photo fee.  For a complete list of requirements and application steps, click here.

Call the Recording Department with any questions at (270) 685-8434 Ext. #3.  Passport service is only available Monday – Friday from 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM.
