A1 Passport & Visa Express was fantastic! We had an international trip coming up and didn't realize our son's passport didn't have 6 months remaining on it (which is a requirement to travel to certain countries). We called A1 and Sam walked us through everything we needed to do. He made the process very easy and quick! I got the passport in about a weeks turnaround time!!

I had a great experience with A1 Passport & Visa Express. All Passport expediting services are expensive. Being able to deal face to face with a person is why I chose this service over the others, and I'm happy I did. I use my passport as my ID (even in the States) and needed quick processing to renew it. I went to their website and prepared all my documentation as directed on the site. Then I called them and was at their office in 15 minutes (I work about 5 blocks away and they had some time before their next scheduled customer). Spent 15 minutes with Sam going over my documentation, getting a better photo and writing checks. He told me the day it would be submitted to the State Department and I received it from State just 3 days after the submission. Thank you, Sam!

We worked with Sam and his company for many years and can't say enough good things about them! They're very knowledgeable, efficient and extremely fair with their rates. If you need your passport or visa done quickly, these are your guys.

If I could give a 10 star review I would! Sam and A1 Passport & Visa Express are great at what they do! They are extremely professional, quick in processing and great in communication. This business is well worth the money.

Yes.
Some countries including Brazil would allow you to carry your old passport containing your valid visa along with your new passport you can also apply for a new visa to be placed in your new passport if your choose to do that. Not all countries would allow you to carry your old visa with your new passport. You may call our office if in doubt.
Effective Jan. 2016 the government no longer adds pages to US passports. The only option available is to renew your current passport. You may also choose the large book of 52 pages without any additional costs to you.
Only the 10 year validity passports can be renewed. If your child’s passport is a 5 year passport, you’ll need to go through the same procedure as a first time passport applicant would need to go through. You must have both, the expired passport And your child’s birth certificate and if you are traveling within the nest 2 – 3 weeks you can use our services to expedite the passport.
No there is no such thing as family passport anymore. Everyone would need their own passports.
US passport issued to anyone over the age of 17 would be valid for 10 years, however, if you are under the age of 17 your passport is issued for only 5 years.
Some countries would allow expeditious processing but some don’t. Normally the cost would be different and those are indicated on our website.
Unfortunately the rule of the government is that if you are getting your first time passport, you must be traveling abroad within 10-15 days and have proof of travel otherwise you won’t be able to use our services. Your options are to either wait until you are closer to your date of travel or apply through your main post office at the “passport acceptance” window.
You’ll need to complete the application form from our website and send in a copy of your US driver’s license along with 2 passport photos (signature required on the back of each photo) and one completed order form for our company. Alternatively if you came in person, we can take your photo and make copy of your driver’s license for you. The processing time is around 3-5 days.
We don’t require an appointment for US type photos only for none US photos.
You can walk in for US passport photos during our regular hours of 9:00 to 6:00 Monday through Friday.
Every country have their own requirements, generally for tourist visa you’ll need 1-2 applications completed from our website, proof of travel and 1-2 passport photos and for business visa you need a company letter of intent and financial responsibility and in some cases you’ll also need a letter of invitation from the inviting party in the country you’ll be visiting.
For a 1st. time passport you’ll need a proof of citizenship i.e. US birth certificate or certificate of naturalization – A valid government issued ID. And proof of travel showing you are leaving the country in about 2-3 weeks or sooner.
I got mine done in 2 days and had to pay passport renewal fee + rush fee. A1 is less expensive than other services I researched.
