Applicants will be emailed when their passport is ready for pick up; approximately 7 to 10 working days from the date they submit their application. New passport pick-up is on Friday between 8:00 am and 10:00 am. An appointment is not required. The Embassy does not provide expedited processing for passport services. Citizens are urged to plan ahead and submit their applications two (2) months prior to the expiration date of their passport.
The American Citizen Services section is open Monday through Friday. Services are provided on an appointment basis only, Tuesday and Thursday. Please make an appointment online.
Before you make an appointment, please read the instructions and the list of required documents for the service you need. It is possible to have several services during the same visit to the Embassy, but you must make separate appointments for each individual service.
Please remember that your appointment signifies the time when you should appear at the Embassy’s public entrance for security screening. Applicants who do not appear at the appointed time will experience considerable delays and/or the possibility of the appointment not being honored. All applicants without a fully and accurately completed application form and all required documentation will be turned away and will need to reschedule an appointment for a later date
We are closed on all U.S. and Togolese public holidays
