Walmart here in Brewton takes passport photos and most Walgreens and CVS. If you wear glasses you must take them off for photo.
Proof of Citizenship: Expired passport issued to an adult or Naturalization Certificate (must be original) or Certified Copy. Persons born in Alabama can go to any local Health Department to purchase a certified copy of their Birth Certificate. It will be issued at the time of purchase.

This instrument will be submitted with your application and returned within two weeks after receipt of your passport.
