FAQ

Passport photo questions, Central edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Central?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo anywhere in Central as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a clear, unedited color photo taken against a plain white or off-white background. Selfies are not allowed, so have a friend or family member take the picture for you.

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

Your passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size and printed 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, glasses are not permitted in U.S. passport photos, even if you wear them daily. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn continuously for religious or medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' poses. A baby can be photographed lying on their back on a plain white blanket or sitting in a car seat draped with a white cloth. Make sure no other people, including the parents' hands, are visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo whenever you apply for a passport renewal. The State Department requires your picture 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 currently takes about 4 to 6 weeks from the time the application is received by the agency. If you request expedited service, the processing time is reduced to 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times can add several weeks to the total turnaround, so Louisiana residents should plan their travel accordingly.

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

The closest regional facility is the New Orleans Passport Center, located about 90 miles southeast of Central. This agency is strictly for travelers who have an urgent international trip within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency. You must make an appointment by phone before visiting the center.
