NASHVILLE, TN — To expedite the process of applying for a passport and to avoid customers having to wait in line, Nashville Post Offices will implement an appointment-only system, beginning tomorrow, Saturday, May 10.
“These changes should expedite the process and help our customers,” said acting Nashville Postmaster Pete Dechelle. “Customers will need to schedule an appointment by calling the office where they intend to apply for or renew a passport. This guarantees they will be taken care of immediately.”
