The first type of documentation needed is evidence of U.S. Citizenship, which can be a previously issued U.S. Passport, a certified birth certificate, a Consular Report of Birth Abroad, Naturalization Certificate, or a Certificate of Citizenship. The second is a Present Identification, which can be a previously issued U.S. Passport, Naturalization Certificate, Valid Driver's License, or a current Government or Military ID. You also need Form DS-11: Application for U.S. Passport (available online or at the agency), a photocopy of each chosen document, two passport photos, and the passport fee (in check, credit card, or money order).
