FAQ

Passport photo questions, Placentia edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Placentia?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo from the comfort of your Placentia home as long as it meets all federal requirements. You will need a plain white background, good lighting, and someone else to snap the picture for you. Services like Perfect Passport can then help ensure your digital image is perfectly cropped and compliant.

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

The U.S. State Department requires passport photos to be exactly 2 by 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, you must remove your eyeglasses for your U.S. passport photo, 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 purposes or a doctor's note for 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' poses. Your baby doesn't need to look directly at the camera, but no other person can be in the photo, which makes laying them on a white sheet at home in Placentia a great strategy.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo that was taken within the last six months when renewing your U.S. passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed much since your last passport was issued, using an old photo will cause your renewal application to be rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks for an additional federal fee. These processing times do not include mailing times to and from the passport facility, so Placentia residents should plan well ahead of any international travel.

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

The closest regional facility is the Los Angeles Passport Agency, located in West L.A. This agency is strictly for travelers who have urgent international travel within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency, and you must make an appointment by calling the National Passport Information Center.
