FAQ

Passport photo questions, Missoula edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Missoula?

Yes, you can easily take your own passport photo from the comfort of your Missoula home. Just ensure you have good lighting, a plain white background, and a friend to snap the picture instead of taking a selfie. Services like Perfect Passport can then format it to meet all federal requirements.

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

The U.S. State Department requires all passport photos to 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. Digital formats must also be uncompressed and free of any digital alterations.

Can I wear glasses or a hat in my U.S. passport photo?

No, you must remove your glasses for your passport photo, even if you wear them daily in Montana. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons. Your full face must be clearly visible without any shadows.

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 infant photos. For example, a newborn doesn't need to be looking directly at the camera, and you can lay them on a plain white blanket to take the shot. 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 whenever you apply for a passport renewal, even if your appearance hasn't changed. The State Department requires the picture to have been taken within the last six months. Using an older photo will cause processing delays for your upcoming trip.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about six to eight weeks, while expedited service takes two to three weeks. Mailing times to and from the processing centers can add a few extra weeks to your total wait. If you are planning an international trip from Missoula, it is best to apply several months in advance.

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

The closest regional U.S. Passport Agency to Missoula is located in Seattle, Washington, which is over 470 miles away. These regional agencies are strictly for life-or-death emergencies or urgent travel within 14 days and require an appointment. For standard applications and renewals, Missoula residents should use local acceptance facilities or apply by mail.
