Urgent Garland travelers have Dallas's agency nearby, and it only sees people traveling abroad within 14 days or needing a foreign visa within 28 days; Houston's agency is about 230 miles south. For an ordinary first passport, the Garland Post Office schedules passport appointments, and the Rowlett, Richland, Richardson, Plano and Mesquite post offices are nearby. The Dallas County District Clerk's East and North Dallas Government Centers, on St. Francis Ave and LBJ Fwy, take applications by appointment, and the Rockwall County District Clerk lists passports among its services too.
