The U.S. Consulate in Frankfurt and the KMC passport offices will host a Passport Outreach Day from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Nov. 7 in Bldg. 2402 on Ramstein.
This event serves as an outreach to provide the KMC with expedited service for passport applications prior to the holiday season.
Consulate representatives will be on site to assist and accept tourist passport and consular report of birth abroad applications.
In addition, representatives from Social Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, and Immigrant Visa Services will be available to answer questions related to immigration, naturalization, visas, citizenship and Social Security.
The Ramstein and Kleber Kaserne passport offices have placed detailed checklists for tourist passports and reports of birth abroad on their websites to help customers fill out their applications. Visit www.ramstein.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?id=17152 (Air Force personnel) or www.kaiserslautern.army.mil/Directorates/DHR/passports.html (Army personnel).
The fee for a report of birth and tourist passport for a child is $205. A tourist passport renewal for an adult is $110, and a tourist passport renewal for a minor under 16 is $105. Anyone over the age of 16 applying for the first time must pay $135. Payment is due with the application and must be paid by money order or cashier check only.
All services will be available on a walk-in basis, with the exception of birth registrations. Contact your servicing passport office to make an appointment for birth registration of your newborn. This will help minimize waiting times.
In order to process applications quickly, clients are asked to come prepared with all original documents in order, money order(s) or cashier check(s), and passport photos (can get these from MOMS or at the Kaiserslautern Military Community Center).
Money orders can be purchased by military ID cardholders at the Ramstein Northside Post Office (cash or debit card only) or at your servicing banking facility prior to or on outreach day.
Unfortunately, on-site passport photo or banking services are not possible.
The Ramstein and Kleber Kaserne passport offices will be closed Nov. 7 and will reopen for regular service Nov. 8.
For questions or to schedule a birth registration appointment, send an email to 786fss.passports@ramstein.af.mil (Air Force personnel) or
