FAQ

Passport photo questions, Laurel edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Laurel?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Laurel as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a clear, unedited color image taken against a plain white or off-white background. Selfies are not permitted, so you will need a friend or a tripod to capture the shot.

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

The State Department requires passport photos to be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size. The image must be printed 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 in Laurel. 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 photo requirements for babies and young children are the same as for adults, but the State Department is slightly more lenient regarding their posture and expression. Infants can be photographed lying down on a plain white blanket, and it is acceptable if a newborn's eyes are not entirely open.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo whenever you apply for a passport renewal, whether you mail it from Laurel or renew online. The photo must 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 several weeks, while expedited service can shorten the timeline for an additional federal fee. Because processing times fluctuate throughout the year, Maryland travelers should check the official State Department website for the most up-to-date estimates before applying.

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

The closest regional facility for Laurel residents is the Washington Passport Agency in Washington, D.C. This agency is strictly for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies, and you must schedule an appointment in advance by calling the National Passport Information Center.
