FAQ

Passport photo questions, Westerville edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Westerville?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Westerville as long as it meets all federal guidelines. Services like Perfect Passport make it easy to snap a compliant picture from home using your smartphone. Just ensure you have good lighting and a plain white background.

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 feature your head sized 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 passport photo, even if you wear them daily. Hats and head coverings are also banned 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 rules are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' poses. No other person can be in the photo, so it is often easiest to lay the baby on a plain white sheet to take the picture.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo when renewing your passport. The State Department requires your passport photo to 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 typically takes 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited processing takes 2 to 3 weeks. These timeframes do not include mailing times, so Westerville residents should apply well in advance of any planned international travel.

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

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Detroit Passport Agency, located about 190 miles north of Westerville. You can only use this agency if you have a life-or-death emergency or are traveling internationally within 14 days.
