FAQ

Passport photo questions, New Britain edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in New Britain?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in New Britain as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You will need a white or off-white background, good lighting, and a friend or tripod to take the picture, as 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. It should be printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper in high resolution, 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, glasses are not permitted in U.S. passport photos, even if you wear them daily in New Britain. 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 infants' expressions and eye contact. If you are photographing a baby in New Britain, you can lay them on a plain white sheet or drape a car seat with a white cloth.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo taken within the last six months when renewing your U.S. passport. Even if your appearance has not changed much since your last application, federal rules require a recent picture.

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. Mailing times can add several weeks to the total door-to-door turnaround, so Connecticut residents should apply well in advance of their trip.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to New Britain?

The closest regional facility is the Connecticut Passport Agency located in Stamford. This agency is only for travelers who have urgent international travel within 14 days or a documented life-or-death emergency.
