The UT Tyler Center for Global Education will hold Passport Day 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26 at the University Center, Dr. Jill Blondin, center director, announced.

“The Center for Global Education has partnered with the U.S. Postal Service to provide this important service to the campus community and the public. We want to make applying for a passport convenient for everyone,” Blondin said.

Cost is $110 plus a $25 execution fee. Photo services also will be available for $15 per person. All passport applicants must provide their social security number, obtain proper paperwork prior to the event and not sign the application until instructed to do so by the acceptance agent.

The passport application form will be available on site. As a reminder, those who study abroad must have a valid passport, Blondin added.
