FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is this an official government website?

No. Passport Photo USA is an independent tool that helps you create a photo meeting the US Department of State's published requirements. You submit it yourself through the official renewal site.

Will my photo be accepted?

We check your photo against every published requirement — size, background, head position, lighting, and sharpness. If it's ever rejected, retake it free or get a full refund.

Do I need special equipment?

No. A phone selfie against a plain wall in even lighting is enough. Our AI replaces the background and crops to size automatically.

Is it just for online renewal, or can I print it?

The download works for online passport renewal. You can also print the 2×2 file at any pharmacy or photo kiosk if you need physical copies.

Is my photo private?

Yes. Your photo is processed right in your browser on your own device — it's never uploaded to a server.

What can I use it for?

US passports and most US visa applications that use the 2×2 inch photo standard.
