FAQ

Passport photo questions, Atlantic City edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Atlantic City?

Yes, you can easily take your own passport photo from your home or hotel in Atlantic City. You just need a smartphone, good lighting, and a plain white or off-white background. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your photo meets all federal guidelines before you submit it.

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

The State Department requires your passport photo to be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size. The image must be in color, printed on high-quality photo paper, and your head must measure between 1 and 1 3/8 inches from chin to crown.

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 Atlantic City. 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 rules are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' poses. No other person can be in the photo, so many Atlantic City parents find it easiest to lay their baby on a plain white sheet at home. The child's eyes should be open, though this is not strictly enforced for newborns.

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 all passport photos to be taken within the last six months to accurately reflect your current look.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These timeframes do not include mailing times, so New Jersey residents should apply well in advance of their trips. If you have upcoming international travel out of Atlantic City, it is best to submit your application as early as possible.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Atlantic City?

The closest regional facility is the Philadelphia Passport Agency, located about an hour away from Atlantic City. You cannot simply walk in; you must schedule an appointment by calling the National Passport Information Center. Appointments are reserved exclusively for travelers with urgent international departures within 14 days or documented life-or-death emergencies.
