Second Passport Book
The U.S. State Department requires that the passport application be completed online, on their website. We have divided the process into 2 steps. Each link will open in a new window or tab. Please, close the new window or tab to return to this page.
You are only allowed to get a second valid US passport for two reasons. One is if your current passport has a stamp from Israel in it and you can submit proof that you are going to a country that will not allow you entry with that stamp. If you do not already have the stamp in your passport but are going to Israel and a country that will deny you entry with an Israel stamp, you must ask the Israel immigration authorities to stamp your entry on a separate sheet of paper. This is a standard practice and will not cause any delays or problems.
The other reason you may be eligible for a second passport is if your current passport is currently at a consulate getting a visa and will not be ready for an emergency trip that has come up. You must show proof such as a receipt that your passport is in a consulate and that it will not be ready for your current trip and you must show proof that you have a trip scheduled.
Second passports are now issued with a 2 year validity only.
