Australia Post - Nowra Post Shop

Handy and convenient

I wouldn't recommend going here to get your passports done. They sent my partner and I away with new forms after trying to lodge our passports as they said the forms were out of date! I rang the passport helpline and they said they haven't / don't expire. And they redone my partners photo as they said the one he had used wouldn't pass, even though they took that photo a couple days before! At least they didn't charge for the pictures. But thanks for stuffing us around!

I do not recommend this post office.
I had an appointment with the (central) Nowra PO on 12/12 to lodge my passport. The woman there told me my photo was too dark and wouldn't accept my application. Given I was traveling through town this would seriously delay my application since I live in Melbourne & don't know anyone nearby to be guarantor. She and her colleagues insisted the Passport Agency would not accept it with this photo and she wouldn't even consider lodging it anyway and letting me deal with that possibility. She asked me if I had overseas travel plans and told me that no matter what I wouldn't have a passport before 15 January.
As I left dismayed 2 customers that overheard my conversation quietly recommended going to another post office. I went there without an appointment and they accepted my application without question. On Friday 16/12 I had an email from the Passport Agency telling me they were dispatching my completed passport and I would have it within the week. This was just 4 days after lodging! And according to the Passport Agency I will have my passport before Christmas. NOT mid January.

Nice helpful staff.
