Getting a passport in Denton
The Dallas Passport Agency, about 36 miles southeast, is Denton's nearest agency, and it books appointments only for travel within 14 days or a visa needed within 28. For a routine first passport, Denton has two acceptance facilities near the center. The University of North Texas Passport Office in Marquis Hall on W Mulberry St takes applications without an appointment, and the Denton County Clerk at the Courts Building on E McKinney St accepts them by appointment. Denton County's Steven E. Copeland Government Center in Cross Roads, its Southwest Courthouse in Flower Mound, and the Aubrey and Little Elm post offices are further options. The Denton County Clerk at that same McKinney St building also issues certified copies of any Texas birth. Our pages for Flower Mound, Little Elm, Lewisville and Frisco cover nearby cities.
