How to Add More Pages to Your Passport

Okay frequent travelers...running out of pages in your passport?

For those with a US passport with 2-4 pages remaining, it's time to send in your valid US passport to add more pages.

You will need to mail in your passport along with current passport fee (at time of publication $82) and completed Form DS-4085, Application for Additional Visa Pages to the address on the form.

Use secure packing materials, such as Tyvek envolope, and a traceable delivery method such as UPS or Fed EX.

Allow at least 6 weeks for processing. If you do not have 6 weeks before your next jet setting adventure, then use the EXPEDITED service starting at $60 for 2-3 week processing. To get your passport back within this time, will require you to use overnight shipping in both directions. Clearly mark the package "EXPEDITED."
