When you book the appointment, it is vital that you print or note down your password and the appointment date and time. You will not receive an automated appointment confirmation email or reminder emails.

Appropriate application forms for the required passport service can be found on the Embassy’s website at https://gt.usembassy.gov/passports/ .

If using the online version of the application form, once you have answered all the questions the form will generate as a PDF file. You must print the application form as it cannot be submitted to the Embassy electronically. If you have difficulty with the online application form, there is a downloadable PDF version which can be printed and completed by hand using black ink.

Note: The U.S. Embassy in Guatemala currently does not accept applications without the barcode in the upper left corner.
