No eyeglasses in U.S. visa, passport photos

KATHMANDU, Oct 17: Effective November 1, applicants for U.S. passports and visas must remove their eyeglasses for U.S. passport and visa photos.

Applicants may wear eyeglasses for U.S. passport and U.S. visa photos only if they have a medical issue, such as a recent surgery, and require eyeglasses to protect their eyes, the U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu said in a press statement.

If applicants must wear eyeglasses for medical reasons, they will need to submit with their application a signed statement from a medical professional or health practitioner, such as a surgeon or ophthalmologist.

Applicants should ensure that they have removed their eyeglasses for their U.S. passport and visa photos to avoid any delays in processing applications.
