A passport is an internationally recognized travel document that verifies the identity and nationality of the bearer. A valid U.S. passport is required to enter and leave most foreign countries.
Only the U.S. State Department has the authority to grant, issue, or verify United States passports, but the Register of Deeds Office can help you in filling out the proper paperwork.
