FAQ

Passport photo questions, Mentor edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Mentor?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo at home in Mentor as long as it meets all U.S. Department of State requirements. Using a service like Perfect Passport allows you to snap a compliant photo with your smartphone without leaving your house. Just ensure you have good lighting and a plain white or off-white background.

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

Your passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) in size. It needs to be a high-resolution color image printed on matte or glossy photo-quality paper. The image must show your full head from the top of your hair to the bottom of your chin, centered within the frame.

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

No, glasses are not permitted in U.S. passport photos, so you must remove them before taking your picture. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you wear them daily for religious or medical reasons, in which case you must provide a signed statement. Your full face must remain visible without any shadows cast by the headwear.

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 infant poses. A baby can be photographed lying down on a plain white blanket or sitting in a car seat draped with a white cloth. No other people, hands, or pacifiers can be visible in the photo.

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 State Department requires your passport photo to have been taken within the last six months to reflect your current appearance. Even if your look hasn't changed much, an older photo will cause your application to be 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. Mailing times can add a few extra weeks to the total turnaround time. If you are flying out of Cleveland Hopkins soon, it is best to apply well in advance.

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

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Detroit Passport Agency, located about 170 miles away in Michigan. This agency is strictly for travelers who have an urgent international departure within 14 days or a life-or-death emergency. For routine processing, you can simply use a local acceptance facility in Lake County.
