Getting a passport in Chandler
The Western Passport Center in Tucson, about 95 miles southeast, is the nearest agency to Chandler; San Diego's, about 305 miles away, comes next. Both serve only urgent cases: travel within 14 days, or a visa needed within 28. For a routine first passport, the Chandler City Clerk at 175 S Arizona Ave takes applications on weekdays from 8:30 to 11:30 AM and 1 to 4 PM, booked online. The Chandler Post Office at 101 N Colorado St also offers passport appointments, Saturdays included. Arizona State University's passport office at 1100 E University Dr in Tempe is another option by appointment. Arizona birth records are closed for 75 years, so you'll need to show you qualify.
