You must pick up a new passport, ID-card or driver license in person and you can to this at any consulate in the U.S. or at the Embassy in Washington DC.

You need to bring your old passport/driver license/national ID-card when you pick up the new one. A parent/legal guardian can pick up a new passport for a minor (under age 18). Alla applicants 18 and older must pick up their passports in person.
