FAQ

Passport photo questions, Monrovia edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Monrovia?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Monrovia 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?

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2x2 inches (51x51 mm) in size, printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper. The image must be in color, clear, and unedited, with your head measuring between 1 and 1 3/8 inches from the bottom of the chin to the top of the 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. Hats and head coverings are also not allowed 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' expressions and head positions. When photographing a baby in Monrovia, you can lay them on a plain white blanket or drape a white sheet over a car seat to ensure a compliant background.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new passport photo taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed significantly, federal rules require a recent photo to accurately reflect how you look today.

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 timeframes do not include mailing times, which can add up to two weeks on each end of the process.

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

The closest regional facility is the Los Angeles Passport Agency, located in West Los Angeles. This agency only accepts walk-ins by appointment for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies.
