Naval Base Kitsap  Base Essentials

A maximum of 10 days of Temporary Lodging Expense (TLE) is authorized for this area.  (Check with your incoming command to inquire if there is a current TLE Extension of up to 60 days in effect)

It is in your best interest to make temporary lodging arrangements as soon as possible due to seasonal tourist events and limited availability. Reservations at the Navy Lodge can be made up to one year in advance with orders. The Navy Lodge is located on Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor and is within walking distance to the Fleet and Family Support Center,  main Navy Exchange, commissary, gym, restaurants, and credit union. Bachelor quarters are available to incoming personnel. Pets are NOT allowed bachelor's quarters. Navy Lodge accepts pets, however there are restrictions, so be sure to call ahead.

If you have not been assigned a sponsor, you may contact your future command or contact the Fleet and Family Support Relocation Specialist at 360-315-3053 for information on how to request one. Having a sponsor can make this relocation experience less stressful plus they can provide you with information specific to you and your families needs.

If you are planning to take leave (either personal or for house hunting), please inform your command and make sure you follow the correct procedures such as submitting a leave request prior to making plans. 

Inprocessing Procedures

When you arrive at Naval Base Kitsap - Bangor, report to the Duty Office in Bldg. 1100, near the Main (Trident) Gate. The duty office personnel will assist you in getting in touch with your command. They will assist you in getting to the barracks, if needed. If you need to call the duty office, the number is 360-627-4024 or DSN 312-627-4024.

If you get married before you PCS, you MUST inform your command and follow the procedures exactly as they are given.  The military will NOT pay for travel and housing of your spouse if you do not follow proper procedures.

Documents to Hand Carry

Active duty members should bring their orders and service record for in-processing. Medical records (or at least a copy) for both you and your family members should be hand carried. If you get married en route, make sure you have a copy of your marriage certificate. This will allow you to get an ID card for your new spouse, have them added to your page 2, and give them access to medical assistance. If possible, bring a copy of school records for your children  to speed up the process of appropriate school placement and continued educational plans. You may also contact the School Liaison Officer at 360-396-4830 or 360-340-2824.
