U.S. Passport Renewal Assistance While Living Abroad

Living overseas shouldn't make renewing your U.S. passport complicated.

While passport applications are issued and approved solely by the U.S. Department of State, we provide the professional support needed to help make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible.
Our Passport Renewal Assistance Includes
✔ Personalised guidance based on your individual circumstances
✔ Eligibility assessment for online or embassy/consulate renewal
✔ Step-by-step support throughout the renewal process
✔ Guidance on required documentation and supporting evidence
✔ Assistance identifying the appropriate U.S. Embassy or Consulate

Why Renew Early?
Many countries require passports to be valid for at least six months beyond your intended travel dates.
If you're planning to:
• Relocate abroad
• Return to the United States
• Apply for residency or immigration benefits
• Purchase property overseas
• Travel internationally
Renewing your passport well in advance can help avoid unnecessary delays and disruptions.
Important Information for U.S. Dual Citizens
If you are both a U.S. citizen and a citizen of another country, remember:
✔ U.S. citizens including dual nationals are generally required to enter and leave the United States using a valid U.S. passport.
✔ Dual U.S. citizens are not eligible to travel to the United States using ESTA under another nationality.
✔ If your U.S. passport has expired or is nearing expiration, it is strongly recommended that you renew it before making travel arrangements.
