FAQ

Passport photo questions, Waco edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Waco?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Waco as long as it meets all federal guidelines. Services like Perfect Passport make this easy by verifying your smartphone photo against State Department requirements. Just ensure you have good lighting and a plain white or off-white background.

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

Your U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2 by 2 inches 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 Waco. Hats and head coverings are also prohibited 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 requirements are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infant poses. No other person can be in the photo, so it is often easiest to lay your baby on their back on a plain white blanket.

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 reflect your current appearance.

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. Mailing times can add several weeks to the total door-to-door turnaround, so Texas travelers should apply well in advance of their trip.

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

The closest regional facility is the Dallas Passport Agency, located about 95 miles north of Waco. This agency is exclusively for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies, and you must schedule an appointment by phone in advance.
