The Norwalk Public Library has officially reinstated passport application services. The library will process new U.S. passport applications (DS-11) for adults and children under 16 by appointment only, but will not offer passport renewals, which must be completed online or by mail through the U.S. Department of State.

Why it matters

The return of passport services at the Norwalk Public Library provides a convenient option for local residents who need to apply for new passports, especially those who may not have easy access to other passport application centers.

The details

To schedule an appointment, patrons can call the reference desk or email the library. Online booking will also be available soon. The library noted that it does not provide passport photo services, so patrons are recommended to use Walgreens, CVS, or Staples for those needs.

The Norwalk Public Library announced the reinstatement of passport services on April 13, 2026.
