FAQ

Passport photo questions, Sioux City edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Sioux City?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Sioux City as long as it meets all federal requirements. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure proper lighting, and have someone else take the picture or use a tripod.

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 must be printed on matte or glossy photo-quality 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 in Sioux City. 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 core requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' expressions and head positions. When taking a baby's passport photo in Sioux City, ensure no other people, hands, or props are visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo that was taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed much, the State Department requires a recent photo to process your renewal.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times from Iowa to the processing center can add a few extra weeks to the total turnaround time.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Sioux City?

The closest regional U.S. Passport Agency to Sioux City is the Minneapolis Passport Agency, located about 270 miles away. Because of the distance, most Sioux City residents only visit this agency for life-or-death emergencies or urgent travel within 14 days.
