FAQ

Passport photo questions, Pleasanton edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Pleasanton?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Pleasanton using a smartphone or digital camera. The State Department allows self-taken photos as long as they meet all official requirements, such as having a plain white background and proper lighting. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your DIY photo is fully compliant before you submit it.

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 and printed in color on glossy or matte photo-quality paper. Whether you print it at a Pleasanton pharmacy or order it online, 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 cannot wear glasses in 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 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 infant poses. A baby can be photographed lying on their back on a plain white sheet, which is easy to do at home in Pleasanton. It is also acceptable if a newborn's eyes are not entirely open in the final image.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo every time you renew your U.S. passport. The State Department requires your passport 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, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These federal timeframes do not include mailing times, which can add up to two weeks on either end of the process for California residents.

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

The closest regional facility is the San Francisco Passport Agency, located about 40 miles west of Pleasanton. You can only make an appointment at this agency if you have urgent international travel within 14 calendar days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency.
