U.S. citizens can now renew their passports online, but the service is currently restricted to a limited set of applicants.

On June 12, the U.S. Department of State announced a beta trial of its online passport renewal system. Americans looking to renew their passports can visit mytravel.state.gov. However, the agency is allowing only a limited number of people to apply online during the beta trial period. The renewal system will open each day at midday (ET) and will close once the daily limit is reached.
