Background:

“We want to make the process of applying for new passports easy for Leeward Oahu residents,” said USPS Marketing Manager Ramona Franco. “A lot of people don’t have the time during the week to drive all the way into Honolulu to submit their passport applications. We’re happy to leverage the convenience of the Postal Service to help our customers apply for new passports prior to the busy summer travel season.”

Advance registration is required. Register beginning August 16 at https://kapoleipassportfair.eventbrite.com Registration is limited. Walk-in customers will be accommodated as time permits.

The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
