The Pelham Library regrets to inform our community that the Passport Mobile Truck’s scheduled visit on October 2, 2025 has been canceled due to changes in federal guidelines beyond our control.
We know this is disappointing news and sincerely appreciate your understanding.
Do you need to apply for a passport, or get yours renewed? Do you need to preserve your military discharge papers? File a business certificate? Stop by the Library any time between 10:00am and 1:00pm on Thursday, October 2 to meet up with the Westchester County Clerk’s Mobile Office!
Please note that you are responsible for bringing all the required documentation and fees. See details below:
Apply for a Passport.
Do not wait until the last minute: The US Department of State estimates 4 to 6 weeks to process passport
applications and an up to 2 to 3 weeks processing time for applications that are expedited at an
additional charge. If you need your passport in less time, you must make an appointment to take your
paperwork directly to a Regional Passport Office. Please visit the U.S. Department of State website at
www.travel.state.gov for details.
Be sure to bring the proper documentation:
You will need proof that you are a US citizen such as an original or certified copy of your birth
certificate, a consular report of birth abroad or a naturalization certificate. You will also need
proof of your identity such as a current valid driver’s license or a government issued
identification card. If your Adult passport is expired OVER 5 years, you must apply with us
by bringing your old passport. If your passport expired UNDER 5 years, you must renew
by mail with a DS-82 application. For minors under the age of 16, both parents should appear
together and sign the application of the child. If only one parent appears and signs, that parent
must submit the other parent's notarized Statement of Consent form (DS-3053) and a photocopy
of his/her identification. The Statement of Consent form can be found at
www.WestchesterClerk.com .
Fees:
Adult passport fee is $130.00; Minor under the age of 16 fee is $100.00. Fees can be paid
only by money order or check made out to the US Department of State. There is an additional
$35.00 service fee that can be paid by credit card, money order or check payable to the
Westchester County Clerk. You can get a 2×2 photo taken at the Mobile Office for $10 ($7 for
seniors). If you have questions about whether you have what you need to apply, do not hesitate
to call our office at 995-3082 weekdays between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. or visit our website at
www.WestchesterClerk.com
Complete your Passport Renewal Application.
Due to the US Department of State requirements, our office can no longer accept renewal applications
(DS-82 Renewal by Mail). The DS-82 must be mailed to the US Department of State by the applicant.
Although you cannot leave your DS-82 with us to mail, our staff is available to assist in completing the
form and you can get your photo taken.
Preserve Your Military Discharge Papers.
The County Clerk serves as a safe and local depository for your DD-214. Your DD-214 will be copied
(you keep the original) and kept on file.
File Your Business Certificate.
If you are conducting any business in Westchester County under a name other than your own, and are
not a corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company, you must file a Business Certificate
in our office. Filing fee of $35 can be paid by credit card, money order or check payable to the
Westchester County Clerk. Bring photo ID.
