Chula Vista, California – The Chula Vista Public Library is excited to announce that they will now be offering passport services to the community. This new service will provide residents with a convenient and efficient way to apply for a new passport or renew an existing one without having to visit a post office or other passport acceptance facility.
The Chula Vista Library Passport Services will be available by appointment only, with appointments being scheduled online through the library’s website. The appointments will be held at the library’s main branch located at 365 F Street, Chula Vista, CA. The library has partnered with the U.S. Department of State to provide this service, ensuring that all applications meet the necessary requirements for processing.
“We are thrilled to be able to offer passport services to the residents of Chula Vista,” said Library Director, Mary Sanchez. “We understand that obtaining a passport can be a time-consuming and sometimes confusing process, so we want to make it as easy as possible for our community members to get the documents they need to travel.”
To prepare for their appointment, applicants are encouraged to review the passport application requirements on the library’s website and gather all necessary documentation beforehand. This will help streamline the application process and ensure that all required materials are submitted correctly.

In addition to passport services, the Chula Vista Library will also be offering passport acceptance training for staff members to ensure that they are knowledgeable and equipped to assist applicants with the process.
