FAQ

Passport photo questions, Manhattan Beach edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Manhattan Beach?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo anywhere in Manhattan Beach as long as it meets federal guidelines. You will need a plain white or off-white background, good lighting, and someone else to take the picture since selfies are not allowed. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your homemade photo is fully compliant.

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

The State Department requires all passport photos to be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size. The image must be printed on matte or glossy photo-quality 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 must be removed for all U.S. passport photos, even if you wear them daily in California. 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 federal requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' facial expressions and head positions. If you are photographing a baby in Manhattan Beach, you can lay them on their back on a plain white blanket or drape a white sheet over a car seat.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo that was taken within the last six months when renewing your U.S. passport. Even if your appearance has not changed significantly, the State Department will reject your application if you reuse the photo from your expiring passport.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine processing currently takes 4 to 6 weeks from the day the application is received by a passport agency or center. If you pay for expedited service, the processing time is reduced to 2 to 3 weeks, not including mailing times.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Manhattan Beach?

The closest regional facility is the Los Angeles Passport Agency, located in the West L.A. Federal Building on Wilshire Boulevard. This agency is strictly for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies, and you must schedule an appointment by calling the National Passport Information Center.
