FAQ

Passport photo questions, Milpitas edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Milpitas?

Yes, you can easily take your own passport photo from anywhere in Milpitas using a smartphone. As long as you stand against a plain white or off-white background and have good lighting, you can use a service like Perfect Passport to format it. This lets you avoid driving across town to wait in line at a pharmacy.

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

The State Department requires your printed passport photo to be exactly 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm). The image must be in color, 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, you must remove your glasses for your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them every day. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you provide a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The federal requirements are generally the same, but infants can be photographed lying down on a plain white blanket or sitting in a car seat draped with a white cloth. It is acceptable if a newborn's eyes are not entirely open, but no other people can be visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, recent photo when renewing your U.S. passport, whether you mail it from Milpitas or apply online. The State Department strictly requires your photo 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 currently takes 4 to 6 weeks from the time the State Department receives your application. If you pay for expedited service, processing takes 2 to 3 weeks, though you should also factor in mailing times to and from California.

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

The closest regional facility is the San Francisco Passport Agency, located about 45 miles northwest of Milpitas. You cannot walk in for routine service; appointments are strictly reserved for life-or-death emergencies or urgent international travel within 14 calendar days.
