Due to a mandatory State Department recertification, Naval Station Rota's Passport Office, located in Building 1, will temporarily suspend the processing of all *NEW* U.S. tourist passports and birth abroad certificates until further notice. An official notification via email, Facebook and ‪#‎TheCoastline will be released once the Passport Office resumes to normal operations. If you submitted an application prior to July 20, your request will continue to be processed and our passport agent will contact you individually to discuss the method of which you will receive your processed documents. As a reminder, the nearest alternate location to apply for U.S. tourist passports/Consular Report of Birth Abroad is at the U.S. Consular Agency in Seville. Please email sevillecons@state.gov for further information and appointment requests.
