FAQ

Passport photo questions, Hammond edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Hammond?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Hammond as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You will need a plain white or off-white background, good lighting, and someone else to take the picture for you, as selfies are not permitted.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size. The image must be printed in color on matte or glossy photo-quality paper, and your head must measure between 1 and 1.375 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 size and background requirements are the same for babies and young children, but the State Department is slightly more lenient regarding their posture and expression. Infants can be photographed lying on a plain white blanket or sitting in a car seat covered with a white cloth, and their eyes do not need to be perfectly open.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo when renewing your passport. The State Department requires your passport photo to have been taken within the last six months to reflect your current appearance.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times are not included in these estimates, so Hammond residents should plan ahead and allow extra time for postal delivery.

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

The closest regional facility is the Chicago Passport Agency, located just across the state line in downtown Chicago. This agency is only available by appointment for travelers with urgent international travel within 14 days or a life-or-death emergency.
