FAQ

Passport photo questions, Kannapolis edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Kannapolis?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Kannapolis as long as it meets all federal guidelines. Services like Perfect Passport make it easy to snap a compliant photo from home using your smartphone.

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 matte or glossy photo-quality paper. The color image must have a plain white or off-white background, and your head must measure between 1 and 1 3/8 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 strictly prohibits wearing glasses in your U.S. passport photo. 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 federal requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants regarding eye contact and facial expressions. Since no other people can be in the frame, Kannapolis parents often lay babies on a plain white blanket to take the picture.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed significantly, submitting an older photo will cause your application to be delayed or rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine processing currently takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited processing takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times can add a few extra weeks to the total turnaround, so North Carolina residents should apply well ahead of their travel dates.

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

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Charleston Passport Center in South Carolina. You can only make an appointment there if you have a life-or-death emergency or are traveling internationally within 14 days.
