FAQ

Passport photo questions, Roswell edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Roswell?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Roswell as long as it meets all federal requirements. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure even lighting, and have someone else take the picture or use a tripod. Selfies are strictly prohibited by the State Department.

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

Whether you print it at a Roswell pharmacy or order it online, your U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size. The image must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper, and feature your head centered. It must measure between 1 and 1.375 inches from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head.

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

No, the State Department does not allow glasses in passport photos, so you must remove them before taking your picture. 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 for babies and children are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient regarding their posture and expression. When photographing an infant in Roswell, you can lay them on a plain white blanket or drape a car seat with a white sheet to ensure a compliant background.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo that was taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed significantly, using an older photo will result in your application being delayed or rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about four to six weeks, while expedited service takes two to three weeks for an additional federal fee. Mailing times from New Mexico to the processing center can add several weeks to the total turnaround time, so apply well in advance of your trip.

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

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the El Paso Passport Agency, located about 200 miles southwest of Roswell. This agency is strictly for life-or-death emergencies or international travel within 14 days, and you must schedule an appointment by calling the National Passport Information Center.
