  • Appear in person
  • Submit proof of U.S. citizenship (certified birth certificate, expired passport, naturalization certificate)
  • Submit proof of identity (driver's license, military ID, other government issued ID)
  • If your name has changed you need a document explaining name change (i.e. Certified copy of marriage license or court order stating name change.)
  • Passport photo required (Photos can be taken on site at our office for a fee of $10 per applicant)

Please contact our office for additional requirements for applicants under the age of 18.

Two payments are required:

The application fee is payable to the U.S. Department of State by personal check, cashiers check, or money order.

The execution fee ($35) and photo fee ($10) are payable to Carteret County Register of Deeds by cash or credit card only.
