The rise in passport applications is driven by increased demand as more Americans plan to travel overseas.

The State Department has responded by boosting staffing by 20% since December 2022 and plans to open new passport agencies in six U.S. cities.

Online passport renewal was introduced nationwide last month, with over 1 million people using the service.
