FAQ

Passport photo questions, Montgomery edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Montgomery?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo anywhere in Montgomery as long as you follow all federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, which you can easily set up in your home or office. Just ensure the lighting is even and the photo is printed on high-quality photo paper if you are applying at a local acceptance facility.

What size and format does a U.S. passport photo need to be?

The State Department requires all passport photos to be exactly 2x2 inches in size. The image must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo paper, and your head must measure between 1 and 1 3/8 inches from the bottom of your chin to the top of your head.

Can I wear glasses or a hat in my U.S. passport photo?

No, you cannot wear glasses in your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them daily for vision correction. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic size and background requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infant poses. For example, an Alabama newborn does not need to look directly at the camera, and you can lay them on a plain white sheet to capture the photo. Just make sure no other people or hands are visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo every time you apply for or renew a U.S. passport. The State Department requires your picture to have been taken within the last six months to accurately reflect your current appearance.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing typically takes several weeks, while expedited service can shorten the timeline for an additional federal fee. Because processing times fluctuate throughout the year, Alabama residents should check the current estimates on the State Department's website before booking their flights.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Montgomery?

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Atlanta Passport Agency in neighboring Georgia. This agency is strictly for life-or-death emergencies or international travel within 14 days, and you must schedule an appointment in advance by calling the National Passport Information Center.
