FAQ

Passport photo questions, Frederick edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Frederick?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Frederick as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You can use a smartphone or digital camera, but you cannot submit a selfie. Services like Perfect Passport make it easy to ensure your home photo is fully compliant before printing.

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 in color, printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper, and feature a plain white or off-white background. 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, you cannot wear glasses in your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them daily in Frederick. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons. In all cases, your full face must be visible without shadows.

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 on infant poses. A baby's eyes do not need to be entirely open, and they can be photographed lying on a plain white blanket or sitting in a car seat covered with a white sheet. No other people, including parents holding the child, can be visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo when renewing your U.S. passport. The State Department requires your passport photo to be taken within the last six months to reflect your current appearance. Even if your look has not changed much, reusing an old photo will cause your application to be rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 6 to 8 weeks from the time your application is received. Expedited processing is available for an additional government fee and typically takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times to and from the processing center can add several weeks to the total turnaround time.

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

The closest regional U.S. Passport Agency to Frederick is the Washington Passport Agency in Washington, D.C. This facility is strictly for travelers who have urgent international travel within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency. You must schedule an appointment in advance by calling the National Passport Information Center.
