Get my U.S. Passport Re-Issued with TDS San Francisco

Effective September 2005 U.S. passport agencies will no longer amend a passport for such reasons as a change of name, change of name by marriage or divorce - a new passport book will be issued to replace the old one.

If your passport was issued more than one year ago, follow the instructions for a Passport Renewal, you are not eligible for a passport Re-Issue.

• If your passport was issued less than one year ago, you require a name change, a data correction
• or, if your passport was limited invalidity for two years or less AND/OR issued abroad follow instructions on this page for a U.S. Passport Re-Issue.

If you answer NO to all three of the statements below, STOP - you cannot apply for a U.S. Passport Re-Issue

1) I have changed my name less than one year since my most recent U.S. passport book and/or U.S. card was issued and my U.S. passport / book is less than one year old.

2) My most recent U.S. passport book was limited to two years or less for a reason other than multiple passport losses or a seriously damaged / mutilated passport.

3) My identifying information in my most recent U.S. book and or U.S. passport card was printed incorrectly.

If you answer NO to these questions you must apply for a New U.S. passport or a Passport Renewal depending on your circumstances. Please contact Travel Document Systems at 888-874-5100 for more information.
