FAQ

Passport photo questions, Norfolk edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Norfolk?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo from the comfort of your Norfolk home as long as it meets all federal guidelines. You will need a white or off-white background, good lighting, and a friend or tripod to take the picture, as selfies are not permitted.

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

Whether you print it at a Norfolk pharmacy or at home, the State Department requires your photo to be exactly 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) in size. It must be printed in color on matte or glossy photo-quality paper, with your head measuring 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 have been banned in U.S. passport photos since 2016, even if you wear them daily in Virginia. 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 rules are the same, but the State Department is slightly more lenient with infants' expressions and eye contact. If you are photographing a baby in Norfolk, you can lay them on their back on a plain white blanket to ensure the background is compliant.

Do I need a new photo to renew my passport?

Yes, you must submit a new, updated photo that was taken within the last six months. Even if your appearance hasn't changed much since your last Virginia driver's license or passport was issued, reusing an old photo will cause your renewal 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, so Norfolk residents should apply well in advance of any planned international travel.

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

The closest regional facility is the Washington Passport Agency, located about 195 miles away in Washington, D.C. This agency is not a standard post office and only accepts appointments for urgent international travel within 14 days or life-or-death emergencies.
