Get two passport photos. Passport photo services are available at retail photo processing labs and some post offices in Utah. If you decide to take the photograph yourself, you can find a list of the photo requirements on the U.S. Department of State website, the passport application or by contacting the National Passport Information Center.
Use the Internet and go to the United States Department of State website. Download a copy of the DS-11 passport application. Complete and print the application using the application wizard or print it and complete the application with a black-ink pen. Do not sign the application until instructed by authorized personnel at a Utah acceptance agency.
Gather required documentation and make a photocopy of the front and back of each required document. Required documentation includes a previous U.S. passport or a birth certificate to prove citizenship. Provide identification and the form of a valid Utah driver's license, government identification, military identification, naturalization certificate or a previous passport.
Submit your application and documentation to an authorized U.S. post office, clerk of a federal or state court of record, probate court or a county or municipal official in Utah that is authorized to accept passport applications. Use the internet to visit the U.S. Department of State website or contact the National Passport Information Center to find an authorized acceptance agency in Utah.
Pay the passport fees in the form of a personal check, money order or cash. Make the check or money order payable to "Department of State." Credit cards are accepted at some post offices.
