FAQ

Passport photo questions, Dana Point edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Dana Point?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Dana Point 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 photo.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size and printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper. 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 are strictly prohibited in U.S. passport photos, even if you wear them every day. Hats and head coverings are also not allowed unless you provide a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical purposes.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The core requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infant poses and facial expressions. No other people can be in the frame, so laying your baby on a plain white blanket is often the easiest method.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo whenever you renew your passport. The State Department requires all passport photos to be 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 currently takes 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These estimates do not include mailing times, which can add a few extra weeks to the total door-to-door process.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Dana Point?

The closest regional facility is the Los Angeles Passport Agency, located about 60 miles northwest of Dana Point. This agency is strictly for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies and requires an appointment.
