Warning, Deadline for Required Passports for ALL USA Travlers

The new U.S. government regulation requiring all travelers entering or re-entering the U.S. to be in possession of a valid U.S. passport is starting Dec. 31, 2006.

"Less than 25% of US citizens have passports. With the deadline fast approaching, don't wait and jeopardize your vacation next winter, there will be a huge last minute rush and many will be denied" said Paul Davis President of www.HomeBasedTravelAgents.org .

Applicants can obtain the passport application from any post office branch or can download it in advance at http://usps.com/passport Proof of citizenship (original documents only) and current photo identification (a driver's license) also are required. Prospective passport-seekers can bring their own passport photos or have them taken at the booth. Fees are as follows: passport, $67; execution fee, $30; and photo fee, $15.
