UK Passport Services in Dallas
Sameday Passport & Visa can assist with your UK Passport needs. The HM Passport Office online application is completed with you at the Dallas office, your documents are uploaded, and British specification photographs are taken at the counter.

The HM Passport Office fee and optional FedEx return are listed separately below.
Or see the full fee breakdown and the UK visa page.
British processing is booked in
British passport processing is by appointment only. Sameday Passport & Visa schedules the appointment at the Richardson office, off the US-75 Spring Valley exit, before you drive over.
Filled in with you, not for you
Sameday Passport & Visa provides complete assistance with the online application and the uploading of your documents. Do not sign the application until instructed to do so.
45mm by 35mm, in office
British passport photographs are a different size from U.S. photographs. Photographs to British specification are taken at the Richardson counter.
Eligibility
To qualify for UK passport renewal.
Three conditions decide whether your book can be renewed from the United States. Sameday Passport & Visa checks all three before an appointment is booked.
- Your most recent Red UK passport can be submitted, in good condition.
- You are currently residing in the USA.
- You are 16 years of age or older.
- Child and replacement applications follow a different route. Call Sameday Passport & Visa and the correct one will be identified for your case.
HM Passport Office states that a new passport does not carry the same number as the old one, so tickets and visas tied to the old number will not match. A burgundy passport, or one with “European Union” on the cover, stays valid until it expires.
Start the online application
The application is made on the HM Passport Office service. Do not sign anything until Sameday Passport & Visa instructs you to.

How to apply
What Sameday Passport & Visa needs from you.
The online application, the photographs and four document sets. Each one is checked at the counter before the file is submitted.
Complete the online application
- Do not sign the application until instructed to do so.
- Complete assistance is provided with the online application, uploading your documents and the photo service, in the office.

Dual nationality
- Colour copies of all pages in your U.S. passport are required if you hold U.S. and UK dual nationality.
- Copies are made in office so the set is complete when the application goes in.
Proof of residency
- A clear photocopy of the driver’s licence or state issued ID is the best proof of address.
- The address must match exactly. The address on the ID must match the present address on the application.
- Alternatives. The most recent major utility bill for water, gas, electric or sewage, or a copy of a valid and current lease containing both the landlord and tenant signature, may also be accepted.
Residency status
- Copy of front and back of the U.S. Permanent Resident Card or valid visa.
