FAQ

Passport photo questions, Hot Springs edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Hot Springs?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Hot Springs as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, which you can easily find in your home or office. Just ensure the lighting is even and you have someone else take the picture, as selfies are not allowed.

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

Your U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 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, the State Department strictly prohibits wearing eyeglasses in your passport photo, even if you wear them daily in Hot Springs. Hats and head coverings are also forbidden 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 photo requirements are the same for infants and children, but the State Department is slightly more lenient about their posture and expression. If you are photographing a baby in Hot Springs, you can lay them on a plain white sheet or drape a car seat with a white cloth to support their head.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo every time you renew your U.S. passport. The photo must 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 generally takes several weeks, while expedited service offers a faster turnaround for an additional fee. Mailing times to and from the processing centers can add extra time to the total wait, so it is best to apply well in advance of your trip.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Hot Springs?

Hot Springs residents are incredibly lucky, as the Arkansas Passport Center is located right in town on Office Park Drive. This regional agency handles urgent travel needs and life-or-death emergencies, but you must call ahead to schedule an appointment.
