## Overview

The [PBS.org](http://pbs.org/) Local Passport Videos List provides a place for Passport-enabled stations to add **local Passport videos** to their local [PBS.org](http://PBS.org) station Passport page ([https://www.pbs.org/explore/passport/](https://www.pbs.org/explore/passport/)). Videos display in the order in which they are added (i.e.: the first video added displays first, the second next, etc.).

**Curate is not set up to prevent non-Passport videos from being added to this list so be sure to review videos carefully so that you only add Passport videos to this list. **

[Learn more about Passport](https://docs.pbs.org/space/PLUS/5505086/Passport)

> ℹ️ This list is different from the list found in the Passport section on your local station video portal. That list features national shows and is programmed by PBS.

## Requirements

This list requires a minimum of four (4) videos and allows a maximum of 50 videos. Adding fewer than four (4) items will result in the List failing to publish.

Your station must be Passport-enabled in order to take advantage of this feature. To ask about enabling Passport on your station, [submit a Support ticket](https://digitalsupport.pbs.org/support/tickets/new).
