FAQ

Passport photo questions, Stow edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Stow?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo at home in Stow using your smartphone. The State Department allows DIY photos as long as they meet all federal requirements, such as having a plain white background and proper lighting. Using a compliance service ensures your photo will be accepted without delaying your application.

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 taken against a plain white or off-white background. Additionally, 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 for vision correction. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons. Your full face must be visible without any shadows cast by clothing or hair.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic size and lighting requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' poses. A baby does not need to look directly at the camera, and you can lay them on a plain white sheet to take the photo. Just make sure 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 photo when renewing your U.S. passport. The State Department requires your passport photo to be taken within the last six months to accurately reflect your current appearance. You cannot reuse the photo from your expiring passport.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes 4 to 6 weeks. If you request expedited service, processing takes 2 to 3 weeks. Keep in mind that these estimates do not include mailing times, which can add up to two weeks on each end of the process.

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

The closest regional U.S. Passport Agency to Stow is the Detroit Passport Agency, located approximately 190 miles away. This agency is strictly for travelers with urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies, and appointments are required. For routine processing, you can use a local acceptance facility right here in Summit County.
