Getting a passport

Below are instructions for a U.S. resident to apply for a passport. You may also need a Visa depending on the country you are visiting, why you are visiting and the length of your stay.
If you are not a U.S. resident, just bring us the specifications found on your passport application. We can shoot passport photos for ANY country. We also shoot photos for other forms of ID: green card, immigration, identification, security, licenses and permits including Virginia gun permit photos.
