FAQ

Passport photo questions, Royal Oak edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Royal Oak?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo anywhere in Royal Oak as long as it meets all federal requirements. Services like Perfect Passport make this easy by verifying your smartphone photo against official guidelines. Just ensure you have good lighting and a plain white or off-white background.

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

The State Department requires all passport photos to be exactly 2x2 inches in size and printed in color on high-quality photo 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 in Michigan. Hats and head coverings are also banned 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 rules are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' poses. A baby does not need to look directly at the camera, and you can lay them on a plain white sheet to take the photo. Just make sure no other people or hands are visible in the frame.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed much since your last application, using an older photo will cause your renewal to be rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Federal processing times fluctuate throughout the year, but routine service generally takes several weeks. Expedited service is available for an additional fee, which significantly reduces the wait time for Michigan residents planning international travel.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Royal Oak?

The closest regional facility is the Detroit Passport Agency, located about 14 miles south of Royal Oak. This agency is exclusively for travelers who need a passport for urgent international travel within 14 days or a life-or-death emergency. You must schedule an appointment by phone to enter the building.
