How to Change Your Digital Photo For a Passport

If you have lost weight or changed the color of your hair since your passport was initially issued, it's not a bad idea to change your passport photo. This is important so you can travel internationally with ease. While changing the photo by itself should not be done, you can change your passport photo by following a few steps.
