United States Postal Service

About

This Brighton branch of the United States Postal Service serves the neighborhood with the standard retail services of a USPS post office, such as mailing letters, shipping packages and buying stamps. It is also a passport acceptance location, and passport-quality photos can be taken on site. Applicants need two forms of identification with copies, the correct application form printed and filled out, and the required fee for a new passport or a renewal.

The State Department’s travel site lists current passport costs, information and forms, and a passport FAQ explains what to bring and how long the process takes. Business customers can handle Business Reply Mail services at the branch, including account balances and new permits. Other post offices nearby include East Watertown, Chestnut Hill, New Town and a Boston College branch, each within about a mile and a half.
