The Clerk’s Office recently wrapped up its third Passport Week, and judging by the numbers it was a big success. In all, we were able to process 437 passports during our extended Passport Week hours. That’s in addition to the hundreds of other passport applications processed during normal business hours.

So what is Passport Week? It’s a week-long event that the Clerk’s Office hosts a few times a year to give working families additional time to come to certain Clerk locations to complete the passport application process. During the week, our Apopka, Ocoee and Winter Park branches stay open an extra hour each weeknight and open on Saturday to serve passport customers.

Look for another Passport Week in the fall of 2017.

Did you know that the Clerk’s newest location is on Sand Lake Road, near the Florida Mall? At our Sand Lake location, you can reinstate a driver’s license, make payments for tickets or fines, apply for a marriage license and even have your marriage ceremony performed right there.

The service center is co-located inside the Tax Collector’s office at the Terrace at the Florida Mall shopping plaza. So the next time you have business with the Clerk’s Office, consider our Sand Lake location and save yourself a trip.
