    What is needed to acquire a passport:

      (1) A certified copy of your birth certificate with a clear seal.
            (1a)If you were born in Montana you can go to the Clerk and Recorder office and they can pull up a copy of the certificate,
                 print it off and certify it, regardless of where in Montana you were born.

      (2) Two identical pictures {2x2} on plain light background, printed paper that will withstand the heat of lamination to the passport. 
           There is more on the web site about pictures.  Some places to get pictures of the right size are: Wal-Mart, Kinkos, Costco, Riggs
           in Miles City, and Baker Rexall, most places that do one hour photo developing.

     After you obtain a certified copy of your birth certificate and receive your pictures, come to the Clerk of Court and fill out the form, present some form of I.D. and the clerk will process your application and mail it to the proper place.

Allow 4 to 6 weeks for your passport to reach you, as the processing time take about this long.   

    If you have an expired passport that is over 10 years but less than 15 you can come to the Clerk of Court office and get a new form.  To renew your passport just follow the steps just as if you are getting one for the first time.
