FAQ

Passport photo questions, Tempe edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Tempe?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo anywhere in Tempe as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure even lighting, and have someone else take the picture since selfies are not allowed.

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

The State Department requires passport photos to be exactly 2x2 inches (51x51 mm) in size. The image must be printed in color on high-quality 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, glasses have been banned in U.S. passport photos since 2016, so you must remove them before taking your picture. 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 infants. A baby does not need to look directly at the camera, and you can lay them on a plain white sheet to take the photo.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed significantly, using an older photo will result in your application being delayed or rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing typically takes 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks for an additional federal fee. Mailing times are not included in these estimates, so Arizona residents should apply well in advance of any planned international travel.

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

The closest regional facility is the Western Passport Center, located about 110 miles away in Tucson. This agency only accepts walk-ins by appointment for travelers facing life-or-death emergencies or those with urgent international departures within 14 days.
