FAQ

Passport photo questions, Harrisonburg edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Harrisonburg?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo from anywhere in Harrisonburg as long as it meets all federal requirements. You must use a clear, unedited color photo taken against a plain white or off-white background. Selfies are not permitted, so you will need a friend or a tripod to take the picture.

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

Your U.S. passport photo must be exactly 2x2 inches (51x51 mm) in size. The image must be printed 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, the State Department strictly prohibits wearing eyeglasses in passport photos, even if you wear them daily in Harrisonburg. Hats and head coverings are also forbidden 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 federal size and background 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 or have their eyes fully open, and you can lay them on a plain white blanket to take the photo.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new photo that was taken within the last six months when renewing your passport. Even if your appearance hasn't changed much since your last Virginia driver's license or passport photo, federal rules require a recent image.

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 to and from the processing center can add several weeks to the total turnaround time.

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

The closest regional facility is the Washington Passport Agency, located about 130 miles away in Washington, D.C. This agency is strictly for urgent travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies, and you must schedule an appointment in advance.
