Local overview

Getting a passport in Stockton

An urgent passport from Stockton means a trip to the San Francisco Passport Agency, roughly 60 miles west, which only sees applicants leaving within 14 days or needing a visa within 28; Los Angeles is about 320 miles away. For a routine first passport, the closest listed acceptance facilities are the French Camp Post Office on E French Camp Rd and the Lodi Post Office on S School St, with Woodbridge, Linden and Victor post offices also in range. The State Department's acceptance facility search shows any other options. In California, a certified birth certificate comes from the recorder in the county of birth, as the state office has no public counter. San Joaquin County's Recorder-County Clerk is downtown at 44 N San Joaquin St. Lodi, Lathrop, Manteca and Tracy are covered on our site as well.
