FAQ

Passport photo questions, Jackson edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Jackson?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Jackson as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure proper lighting, and have someone else take the photo for you. Selfies are strictly prohibited by the U.S. Department of State.

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 high-quality photo paper, and 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 passport photo, even if you wear them daily in Jackson. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious purposes or a doctor's statement for medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic photo requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants and toddlers. For example, a newborn's eyes do not need to be fully open, and you can lay them on a plain white blanket to take the picture. No other people or hands can be visible in the child's photo.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo whenever you apply for or renew a U.S. passport. The photo must 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 four to six weeks, while expedited service takes two to three weeks. These processing times do not include the time it takes for your application to travel through the mail from Michigan to a passport facility.

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

The closest regional facility is the Detroit Passport Agency, located about 78 miles east of Jackson. This agency is only for travelers who have urgent international travel within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency, and an appointment is required.
