FAQ

Passport photo questions, Hobbs edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Hobbs?

Yes, you can easily take your own passport photo from your home in Hobbs using a smartphone or digital camera. Just ensure you have good lighting, a plain white background, and use a service like Perfect Passport to verify it meets all federal requirements.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2x2 inches in size and printed on high-quality photo paper. The image must be in color, clear, and feature your head centered, measuring between 1 and 1.4 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, the State Department strictly prohibits wearing glasses in passport photos, even if you wear them daily in Hobbs. Hats and head coverings are also not allowed 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 requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' expressions and posture. No other people can be in the photo, so it is often easiest to lay your baby on a plain white sheet at home to take the picture.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo every time you renew your U.S. passport. The photo must have been 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 typically takes 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes about 2 to 3 weeks for an additional federal fee. Mailing times from New Mexico can add a few extra days on either end, so it is best to apply well before your trip.

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

The closest regional facility is the El Paso Passport Agency, located about 235 miles away in Texas. This agency is only for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies, and you must schedule an appointment in advance.
