Getting a passport in Long Beach
The Los Angeles Passport Agency, about 22 miles away, is the nearest to Long Beach, with San Diego's about 90 miles southeast. Either one sees applicants only when travel is less than 14 days away or a visa is due within 28. For an ordinary first passport, there's no shortage of acceptance facilities. The Signal Hill Post Office on Grand Ave holds passport appointments, and Cal State Dominguez Hills runs a Passport Hub in Carson, including on Saturdays. Artesia City Hall and the Bellflower and Compton post offices are other nearby options. California birth certificates come from the county where the birth took place, and the state office has no public counter; for a Los Angeles County birth, the Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk's headquarters on Imperial Hwy in Norwalk is the main office. Our pages for Signal Hill, Lakewood and Torrance cover nearby cities.
