Beginning March 1, passport processing at Renton City Hall will move to the Municipal Court Clerk’s Office located on the third floor. As a part of this change, passport processing will be conducted by appointment only, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.

The Municipal Court Clerk’s Office expects to take between 30-40 passport appointments per day, and will expand the hours if needed.

The City of Renton became a Passport Acceptance Facility in May of 2003. This allows the city to assist with applications for a US passport, though the decision to issue or deny a passport is made by a US Department of State Passport Agency, not the City of Renton.

More information can be found on the city’s passport webpage at rentonwa.gov/living/default.aspx?id=1716 or by calling its passport line at (425) 430-6985.
