FAQ

Passport photo questions, Pasadena edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Pasadena?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Pasadena as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure proper lighting, and have someone else take the picture since selfies are not allowed. Services like Perfect Passport make this process easy by verifying your photo against State Department rules.

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

A U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches in size. The image must be printed in color on high-quality photo paper, and your head must measure between 1 and 1.375 inches from the bottom of your chin to the top of your head. Digital photos must also be high resolution and unedited.

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 in Pasadena. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited unless you submit a signed statement verifying they are worn daily for religious or medical reasons. In those exempt cases, the head covering still cannot obscure your face or cast shadows.

Are passport photos for babies and young children different?

The basic size and background rules are the same for babies, but the State Department is slightly more lenient regarding their posture and expression. Infants can be photographed lying down on a plain white sheet or sitting in a car seat covered with a white cloth. Ensure no other people, hands, or pacifiers 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 your passport photo to be taken within the last six months to reflect your current appearance. Even if your look hasn't changed much, reusing an old photo will cause your application to be rejected.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing currently takes 4 to 6 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. These timeframes do not include mailing times, which can add up to two weeks on either end of the process. If you are applying from Pasadena, plan ahead and submit your application well before your upcoming Texas departure dates.

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

The closest regional facility is the Houston Passport Agency, located in downtown Houston. This agency is strictly for life-or-death emergencies or urgent international travel within 14 days. You cannot walk in for routine service; you must call the national scheduling system to secure an appointment.
