FAQ

Passport photo questions, Corpus Christi edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Corpus Christi?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Corpus Christi as long as it meets all federal guidelines. Using a service like Perfect Passport ensures your picture is properly cropped and compliant without leaving your house. Just make sure you have good lighting and a plain white background.

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

The State Department requires your passport photo to be exactly 2x2 inches (51x51 mm) in size. The image must be in color, printed on matte or glossy photo quality paper, and taken within the last six months.

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

No, you cannot wear glasses in your U.S. passport photo unless you have a signed doctor's note for medical reasons. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless worn daily for religious or medical purposes, and they must not cast shadows on your face.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic federal 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 picture. Just ensure 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 whenever you renew your U.S. passport. The State Department requires the image to reflect your current appearance and be taken within the last six months.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes about 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These federal processing times do not include mailing times, so Texas residents should apply well in advance of their trip.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Corpus Christi?

The closest regional facility is the Houston Passport Agency, located about 210 miles northeast of Corpus Christi. You can only make an appointment there if you have urgent international travel within 14 days or a qualifying life-or-death emergency.
