FAQ

Passport photo questions, Bridgeport edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Bridgeport?

Yes, you can absolutely take your own passport photo from your Bridgeport home or office. As long as the image meets all federal guidelines for lighting, background, and sizing, the State Department accepts photos taken with a smartphone. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your DIY photo is fully compliant before submission.

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 matte or glossy photo-quality paper. Additionally, 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 for daily activities in Connecticut. 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 infant photos. For example, a newborn's eyes do not need to be fully open, and you can lay them on a plain white sheet to take the picture. Just make sure no other people or hands are visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo whenever 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 typically takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These timeframes do not include mailing times, so Bridgeport residents should plan to apply well in advance of any upcoming international trips.

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

The closest regional facility is the Connecticut Passport Agency, located just down the coast in Stamford. This agency is exclusively for travelers who need a passport for urgent international travel within 14 days or for a life-or-death emergency.
