If you're applying for a U.S. passport

The official U.S. Department of State passport website is:

For a first-time adult U.S. passport, the State Department says you generally apply in person at an authorized passport acceptance facility. Eligible adults can renew online or by mail.

A few direct official portals

UK Passport — GOV.UK — The UK allows applications, renewals, replacements and updates online.

Canada Passport — Government of Canada — Includes passport applications, urgent service, appointments and service locations.

Australia Passport — Australian Passport Office — Provides application, status-tracking and passport information.

India Passport — Passport Seva — India's official Ministry of External Affairs passport portal. The Indian government specifically warns applicants about fraudulent passport websites and identifies PassportIndia.gov.in as the official site.

Important:

Be careful with websites that advertise themselves as “passport services” or “passport agents.” For a government passport, start with your country's official government website whenever possible.
