This can be done either through a regional government passport agency or through special online passport companies. First it is important to know that U.S. passports are required for all children that intend to travel internationally. An application must be completed for the child including all of the required documents and passport photographs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are going to apply for an expedited passport through a government agency, there are several places you can go. You can apply for a passport at the post office, certain courthouses and of course the passport agency. If you do not know the location of the nearest agency in your area, you can perform a search on the U.S. Passport website. They have listings of the over 70,000 agencies located throughout the United States.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In order to process your child's passport application, you will be required to have proof of citizenship and proof of ID. This will be specified on the application form. You will also need to provide recent passport photos of your child.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When applying for a passport through the normal routes, it takes between a month and a month and a half to receive your new passport. Government agencies do however provide expedited service for an additional fee. This expedited service cannot guarantee your passport by a specific time. Expedited service is typically three weeks shorter than the normal service.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Minor US passports expire every five years. When this occurs, you must apply for a new one. The most convenient way to apply for another passport is on the Internet. The application process is quick and easy, and a new passport can be expected in the mail in less than three weeks. If you need a new passport right away, there are also emergency options available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many online companies offer services where they can get you a passport very quickly. Some offer services that will get you a new passport in less than 24 hours. There are extra fees associated with these expedited services. And before you decide to go with one of these companies it is important to check their credentials.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The company should be approved by the U.S. Department of State. They must also be registered with the U.S. Passport Agency. Many of these companies state they can provide you with a passport within twenty four hours for urgent travel. There are fees associated with expedited passports. It's best to shop around and see which company provides the best offer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is still an application process, so it is important to have all of your documentation in advance. You will need to provide your child's citizenship papers and all other documents regarding their identity. This information will be provided on the website. Or you may call the company if you have any questions. You will also have to provide your child's passport photograph.&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Sat, 13 Nov 2010 13:52:53 EST</pubDate><guid>http://www.trcb.com/travel/preparation/next-day-kids-passport-29893.htm</guid><source url="http://www.trcb.com/rss/article/next-day-kids-passport-29893.xml">TRCB.com</source><category>Travel / Preparation</category></item></channel></rss>
