Getting from Durham to the office, or using the mail
From Durham, the 5 h 8 min drive and a counter that takes papers only in the morning add up to two days: one to arrive near Washington, D.C., one at the Embassy.
For a same-day NVR, the Embassy takes passports only early in the morning, which from Durham means arriving the day before.
At the Embassy, the e-passport enrollment slot comes from the national portal, while the NVR is handled the same day without an appointment.
