Renewal of US passport while in Portugal

6 months ago
Hello all,
A passport renewal question (five questions rather):
1) Has anyone renewed a US passport while in Portugal?
2) How fast really does a new passport arrive to a Portuguese address?
3) Has anyone experienced any snafus during the process (returns, mis-deliveries, non-deliveries, etc.)? Since the expiring passport is supposed to be sent along with the application, photos and fees, I am somewhat hesitant to stay passport-less (unless this period is really short).
4) Is the option of applying physically at the US embassy in Lisbon better, more reliable and/or viable?
5) Does the passport have to be really mutilated in order to exercise the embassy option?
Thank you!
