JACKSON, Wyo. — The Teton County Clerk of District Court will host their annual passport Sunday event Oct. 2 and are planning another Passport Sunday event in December, the county announced today in a press release.

October’s passport Sunday will be from 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. by appointment only at the Teton County Clerk of District Court’s Office, on the second floor of the Courthouse at 180 S. King Street.

Appointments are required for all passport application processing at the Clerk of District Court Office, including for Sunday’s event. 

Beginning today, Sept. 6, weekly appointments have adjusted to 8 a.m., 9 a.m., 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. Only one appointment is needed to process members of the same family. For minor’s applications, the minor and parents need to appear for the appointment.

According to the release, the U.S. Department of State (U.S.D.S.) reports processing times at 11 weeks for routine processing, and seven weeks for expedited processing— for an additional $60. These estimates are target timeframes for passports that do not require additional follow up with U.S.D.S. and they do not include mailing time to and from U.S.D.S.  Mailing time could add an additional week each way, adding two weeks to the total estimated turnaround time.

Appointments can be made by visiting tetoncountywy.gov/codc or by calling 307-733-2533. Applications and requirements are available on travel.state.gov.
