Did you know that Staples can help you get approved for TSA PreCheck in stores?

Staples is now joining many nonairport sites in helping people enroll in TSA PreCheck at some of its locations.

TSA PreCheck allows passengers to “keep your shoes, jacket and belt on while 3-1-1 compliant liquids and laptop stay in your bag. When enrolled, you’ll enjoy faster, more efficient security screenings at participating U.S. airports for smoother traveling wherever you go,” the Staples website detailed.

Here’s how you can get started.

Can you do TSA PreCheck at Staples?

The Staples website details the three steps it takes for those interested in enrolling for TSA PreCheck in one of its participating stores:

1. “Find a location” that is helping enroll people for TSA PreCheck by “typing your ZIP code in the search bar” on the website.
2. “Start your enrollment online” by logging in to the TSA PreCheck site to enter your information in prior to your in-person appointment.
3. “Confirm your location” and choose which location site is nearest you to finish your enrollment.

Chase reported that TSA PreCheck approval costs $78 per person and that once you’re approved, “your membership is good for five years, after which you will again have to pay a fee for renewal.”

Those who apply typically receive their TSA PreCheck approval notification within 3-5 days of their in-person visit, “though some applications can take up to 60 days,” according to the TSA’s website.

Why is Staples offering TSA PreCheck enrollment?

“As the travel landscape has dramatically shifted over the past several years, we want to meet our customers where they need us in order to alleviate the stress commonly associated with travel services,” Staples’ senior vice president of services, Craig Grayson, told USA Today.

The service has reportedly been offered in 250 stores and has helped admit 2.5 million applicants for PreCheck over the “last five years.”

Grayson continued, “Whether you need a passport expedited, want a hassle-free way to sign up for TSA PreCheck, or simple need to snap a few passport photos, we’re here to support both leisure and business travelers in an increasingly major way.”
