- Passport photograph – taken within the last 6 months, must meet passport requirements as to size (2×2 in), imagine, weight of paper, finish, and must be on a plain, light background. One passport sized photograph is available for purchase at the Passport Facility for $15.00.
- Personal Identification – Picture ID (valid driver’s license is preferred). Most government issued picture IDs that have an issue date, expiration date, and signature will work.
