FAQ

Passport photo questions, Chaska edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Chaska?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Chaska using a smartphone or digital camera. Just ensure you have good lighting, a plain white or off-white background, and follow all federal guidelines. Services like Perfect Passport can help verify your photo meets all requirements before you submit it.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2x2 inches (51x51 mm) in size. The image must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo quality paper, and taken within the last six months.

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 Chaska. 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 are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' expressions and eye contact. When photographing a baby in Chaska, you can lay them on a plain white sheet or drape a car seat with a white cloth to ensure a compliant background.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new passport photo every time you renew your passport. The State Department requires the photo to be 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 up to 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times can add several weeks to the total turnaround, so Minnesota residents should apply well in advance of their travel dates.
