FAQ

Passport photo questions, York edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in York?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in York as long as it meets all federal requirements. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure proper lighting without shadows, and have someone else take the picture since selfies are prohibited.

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

The State Department requires your passport photo to be exactly 2 by 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) in size. The image must be printed in color on matte or glossy photo-quality paper, and your head must measure between 1 and 1 3/8 inches from the bottom of your chin to the top of your head.

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

No, glasses are not permitted in U.S. passport photos, even if you wear them daily in York. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious purposes or a doctor's statement for medical reasons.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic photo requirements are the same for infants and children, but the State Department is slightly more lenient regarding their posture and expression. For example, a baby photographed in York can be laid on a plain white sheet, and it is acceptable if their eyes are not entirely open or looking perfectly straight at the camera.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo when renewing your passport, whether you mail your application from Pennsylvania or renew online. The State Department requires the photo to have been taken within the last six months to accurately reflect your current appearance.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times from Pennsylvania to the federal processing centers can add a few extra weeks to your total turnaround time.

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

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Washington Passport Agency, located about 90 miles south of York. You can also use the Philadelphia Passport Agency, which is roughly 100 miles east, but both locations require an appointment for travel within 14 days.
