FAQ

Passport photo questions, Virginia Beach edition.

Can I take my own passport photo in Virginia Beach?

Yes, you can take your own passport photo in Virginia Beach as long as it meets all federal requirements. You must use a plain white or off-white background, ensure proper lighting without shadows, and have someone else take the picture or use a tripod.

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

The State Department requires all passport photos to be exactly 2 by 2 inches 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, glasses are not permitted in U.S. passport photos, even if you wear them daily in Virginia Beach. 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 photo requirements for infants and children are the same as for adults, including the 2 by 2 inch size and white background. However, the State Department is slightly more lenient with newborns, allowing them to be photographed lying on a plain white blanket without their eyes being fully open.

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 Beach vacation, federal rules require a recent image to reflect your current look.

How long does it currently take to get a passport?

Routine passport processing typically takes 6 to 8 weeks, while expedited service takes 2 to 3 weeks. Mailing times to and from the processing centers can add several weeks to the total turnaround time for Virginia residents.

Where is the closest U.S. Passport Agency to Virginia Beach?

The closest regional facility for urgent travel is the Washington Passport Agency in Washington, D.C. This agency only accepts walk-ins by appointment for travelers facing life-or-death emergencies or those with international flights departing within 14 days.
