FAQ

Passport photo questions, Kalamazoo edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Kalamazoo?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Kalamazoo as long as it meets all federal requirements. You must use a clear, unedited color image taken against a plain white or off-white background. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your homemade photo passes State Department checks.

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 in color, 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, 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 daily for religious or medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic size and background requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infant poses. No other person can be in the photo, so it is often easiest to lay the baby on their back on a plain white blanket.

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 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 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times are not included in these estimates, so Michigan residents should apply well in advance of their planned travel dates.

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

The closest regional facility is the Detroit Passport Agency, located about 140 miles east of Kalamazoo. This agency is reserved exclusively for travelers who need a passport for urgent international travel within 14 days or for life-or-death emergencies.
