FAQ

Passport photo questions, Rancho Cordova edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Rancho Cordova?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo anywhere in Rancho Cordova as long as you follow federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure proper 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?

Your U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches 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 cannot wear glasses in your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them daily. 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' expressions and head positions. When photographing a baby in Rancho Cordova, you can lay them on a plain white blanket or drape a car seat with a white sheet to ensure a compliant background.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo whenever you apply for a passport renewal. The State Department 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 several weeks, while expedited service can shave a few weeks off the timeline for an additional federal fee. Because processing times fluctuate throughout the year, California travelers should apply well in advance of any planned international trips.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Rancho Cordova?

The closest regional facility is the San Francisco Passport Agency, located about 100 miles away. This agency does not accept walk-ins and is strictly for travelers who have urgent international travel within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency.
