FAQ

Passport photo questions, Joplin edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Joplin?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Joplin as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure even lighting, and have someone else take the photo or use a tripod.

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 and printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper. 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 unless you have a signed doctor's note for a medical condition. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless worn daily for religious or medical purposes, and they must not cast shadows on your face.

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 infants' poses. A baby can be photographed lying 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 when renewing your passport, even if your appearance hasn't changed. The State Department requires your passport photo to have been taken within the last six months.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times are not included in these estimates, so Missouri residents should apply well ahead of their planned departure.

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

The closest regional U.S. Passport Agency for urgent travel is the Arkansas Passport Center in Hot Springs, which is over 250 miles away. Because it requires a long drive from Joplin, travelers should try to renew by mail well in advance to avoid needing an emergency appointment.
