FAQ

Passport photo questions, Dalton edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Dalton?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Dalton as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You cannot take a selfie, so you will need a friend or a tripod to capture the image. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your homemade photo passes all State Department checks.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) in size. The image needs to be printed on high-quality, matte or glossy photo paper, and your head must measure 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, you cannot wear glasses in your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them daily around Dalton. 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 for babies, but the State Department is slightly more lenient about their posture and expression. For Georgia parents, it is often easiest to lay infants on a plain white sheet or drape a car seat with a white cloth to take the photo at home.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo whenever you renew your 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 generally takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times to and from the processing centers can add a few extra weeks to the total turnaround time for Georgia residents.

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

The closest regional facility is the Atlanta Passport Agency, located about 90 miles southeast of Dalton. This agency is exclusively for travelers who need a passport for urgent international travel within 14 days or have a qualifying life-or-death emergency.
