Bureau of Engraving and Printing

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) is the largest producer of security documents in the United States, producing over 9 billion Federal Reserve notes each year (coins are produced by the United States Mint).

The BEP offers 40-minute congressional tours at 8:15 am, 8:45 am, 4:00 pm, 4:14 pm, 4:30 pm, and 4:45 pm, Monday through Friday (afternoon times are only available April through August).  Congressional tours are limited to groups of ten.  Please note that these tours fill up quickly.  Contact my office at (202) 224-5521 to request a congresional tour.

Public tours begin every 10 minutes from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm Monday through Friday.  Evening tours from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm are offered in the summer, June through August. Tickets for the public tours are free and available at a booth on Raoul Wallenberg Place beginning at 8:30 am.  For more information, consult www.moneyfactory.com or (202) 874-2330.
