It can range from $10-$20, but there’s no set price as any establishment is free to charge whatever they want. There’s almost always an additional fee for taking the photos. First option: get your baby’s photo taken professionallyĪt some passport application sites, you can get your baby’s photo taken by the county clerk office or participating USPS offices.Īlso, pharmacies like CVS not only take adult passport photos in the photo department, but also take photos for babies and children. For babies, there are some kind of strict rules on photos, but you actually are welcome to do the photos on your own (we did). The most updated processing times can be found at website. Sure enough, with expediting fees, we got our baby’s passport in 7 weeks from the date of our appointment. When we applied, the standard turnaround was 8-11 weeks and expedited service was about 7 weeks. If you have the budget, expediting can somewhat ensure that the passport will come sooner, but I suggest looking into how fast that really will be. We chose to expedite our baby’s passport application and looked into the fees for that. We were lucky that we applied before things got “more backed up.” The US State Department goes through cycles of being backed up with passport applications and really backed up with passport applications. This is when considering your timeline comes in handy. For us, we simply wanted our daughter to have a passport “just in case we decided to book a trip out of the country.” But for some families, there’s already a trip in mind, with dates planned.
