FAQ

Passport photo questions, Wake Forest edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Wake Forest?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo at home in Wake Forest. You just need a smartphone and a well-lit area with a plain white or off-white background. Services like Perfect Passport can help ensure your photo meets all State Department requirements.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2x2 inches (51x51 mm) in size. The image must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo quality paper, 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, you cannot wear glasses in your U.S. passport photo, even if you wear them daily. 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 requirements are the same for babies and young children. However, the State Department is slightly more lenient with infant photos, allowing them to be taken in a car seat or lying on a plain white blanket, as long as 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, recent photo when renewing your U.S. passport. The State Department requires that your passport photo be taken within the last six months to reflect your current appearance.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 6 to 8 weeks, whether you apply at a Wake Forest post office or by mail. If you pay for expedited service, you can expect to receive your passport in 2 to 3 weeks.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Wake Forest?

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Washington Passport Agency, located about 245 miles north of Wake Forest. This agency is intended only for life-or-death emergencies or urgent international travel within 14 days, and you must schedule an appointment in advance.
