Passports
   

Because Willamette Medical Teams travel around the world, a passport is required for all team members.

  • If you have never had a passport or it has been 15 years since your last passport was issued or you are under the age of 16 or your passport has been lost or stolen, please click here.
  • If you have a passport but need to renew it, please click here.

You will need to prove U.S. Citizenship utilizing any one of the following:

Previous U.S. Passport (mutilated, altered, or damaged passports are not acceptable as evidence of U.S. citizenship.)

Certified birth certificate issued by the city, county or state. NOTE: A certified birth certificate has a registrar's raised, embossed, impressed or multicolored seal, registrar’s signature, and the date the certificate was filed with the registrar's office, which must be within 1 year of your birth

Consular Report of Birth Abroad or Certification of Birth
Naturalization Certificate
Certificate of Citizenship

A Delayed Birth Certificate filed more than one year after your birth may be acceptable if it:

Listed the documentation used to create it and
Signed by the attending physician or midwife, or, lists an affidavit signed by the parents, or shows early public records.

If you do NOT have a previous U.S. passport or a certified birth certificate, you will need:

Letter of No Record
Issued by the State with your name, date of birth, which years were searched for a birth record and that there is no birth certificate on file for you.

AND as many of the following as possible:
Baptismal certificate
Hospital birth certificate
Census record
Early school record
Family bible record
Doctor's record of post-natal care
NOTES: These documents must be early public records showing the date and place of birth, preferably created within the first five years of your life.

You may also submit an Affidavit of Birth, form DS-10, from an older blood relative, i.e., a parent, aunt, uncle, sibling, who has personal knowledge of your birth. It must be notarized or have the seal and signature of the acceptance agent.

 

Photographs taken by a digital camera are not acceptable for your passport application.
