What should you do if you're leaving the country in a few days and your new U.S. passport hasn't arrived yet? Our Lonely Planet Senior Producer Matt Paco had to find out for himself when his renewed passport was still being processed, and he was heading oversees in 3 days. Getting your new passport in 24 to 48 hours is possible, but it might involve traveling somewhere else to meet with a passport agent in person. Be sure to triplecheck if the passport you had already ordered can be overnighted to you. It might save you a trip.

If you need a U.S. passport in less than a week, call 8774872778, Monday to Friday, 8am10pm ET.
