Trans Visibility Passport Day

The U-M Spectrum Center and the School of Social Work Office of Global Activities are collaborating to host Trans Visibility Passport Day. During this event, the Washtenaw County Clerk's office will assist students and community members to apply for, renew, or change their passport. 

Currently, you can obtain a ten-year passport with an updated gender marker if you have had clinical treatment determined by your doctor to be appropriate in your case, to facilitate gender transition. No specific details are required about the appropriate treatment to have an updated gender marker on your passport.

The cost of a passport is:

• Regular Passport Book $110 (will take 4-6 weeks to receive the passport)
• Expedited Passport Book $170 (will take 2-3 weeks to receive the passport)
• A passport card is an additional $30
• There is a separate processing fee of $35 applicable to all passport applications

Please be aware that all payments must be made on the day of the event. Payments for the passport book or card must be payable to the U.S. Department of State. Payments for the processing fee must be payable to Washtenaw County Clerk. All payments MUST be a check or a money order. Counter checks are not allowed.

Financial support may be available for students applying for a passport who are requesting name or gender maker change. Please send a message to [email protected] to request more information

Please review the document(s) relevant to your passport application. These documents include important information about applying as well as list the required documents you will need to obtain your passport.
