Online passport renewal is now available for some applicants. Here's how it works.

You may not need to go to the post office to renew your passport anymore.
The State Department is running a trial for online passport renewals and says it plans to fully open the system for online renewals in the coming months.
Online renewals will be available to a limited number of applicants each day for now, and those applications will only be accepted during Eastern time zone midday hours.
“We plan to continue to limit the number of applications accepted each day so we can monitor the system’s performance in real time,” a statement from the State Department said. “This beta release during which we are limiting the daily applications is an important and standard part of the software development process.”
