Representatives of the American Institute in Taiwan will be in Taichung May 25, 2005, to provide Consular services.  American citizens wishing to file applications for U.S. passports or to add pages to U.S. passports, and all persons requiring the services of a notary public for U.S. purposes, may come to the American Corner located in the National Taichung Library at 291-3, Jingwu Road, Taichung City from 10:30 am to 12:00 am for these services.

For adult U.S. passport renewals, each applicant is required to make in advance one A4-sized photocopy of each page in his or her current passport that contains a photograph or personal data.  Parents wishing to renew the passport of a child under 14 years of age must bring copies of the parents' passports or I.D. cards along with a copy of the child's birth certificate.  Applications for passports for children under 14 must be signed by both parents.  If both parents cannot come to the American Corner, the applying parent must bring notarized written consent of the other parent or a custody decree showing sole custody.  If you wish for your new passport or extra passport pages to be mailed to you, please bring along a self-addressed stamped envelope with NT$30.00 postage.
