  • 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) in size

While we recommend you use a professional passport service to ensure your photo meets all the requirements, you may take the photo yourself. Hand-held self portraits are not acceptable. Photos must not be digitally enhanced or altered to change your appearance in any way. If you take the photo yourself with a digital camera, the digital image must adhere to the following specifications:

Color: The image must be in color in sRGB color space which is the common output for most digital cameras.

If you want to scan an existing photo, in addition to the digital image requirements, your photo must be:

Section V: Privacy Act Statement

Authority:

Collection of this information is authorized under Public Law 107-188; 18 U.S.C. § 175b; 28 U.S.C. § 534; 28 CFR § 0.85; 7 CFR Part 331; 9 CFR Part 121; 42 CFR Part 73.

Principal Purpose:

The information collected on this form will be used for the principal purpose of conducting a security risk assessment to determine if you may possess, receive, access, use and/or transfer select agents and toxins. As part of this assessment, the collected information may also be used to assist in determining approval, denial, revocation or renewal of a certificate of registration issued by Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) or U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for possession, use and transfer of select agents and toxins.


The FBI's acquisition, preservation, and exchange of fingerprints and associated information are generally authorized under 28 U.S.C. 534. The civil fingerprint records contained in Next Generation Identification (NGI) are only available to Department of Justice (DOJ) components when there is a need for the information in order to perform official duties, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 534 and 5 U.S.C.§ 552a(b)(1). Civil fingerprint data within NGI will also be shared with federal, local, state, and tribal agencies as permitted by applicable Federal and State statutes, Federal and State executive orders, or regulation or order by the Attorney General. Information is shared with authorized noncriminal justice agencies and entities for employment suitability checks, permits, identity verification, and licensing in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and policies. Providing your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics is voluntary; however: failure to do so may affect completion or approval of your application.


Certain determinations, such as employment, licensing, and security clearances, may be predicated on fingerprint-based background checks. Your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics may be provided to the employing, investigating, or otherwise responsible agency, and/or the FBI for the purpose of comparing your fingerprints to other fingerprints in the FBI's NGI system or its successor systems (including civil, criminal, and latent fingerprint repositories) or other available records of the employing, investigating, or otherwise responsible agency. The FBI may retain your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics after the completion of this application and, while retained, your fingerprints may continue to be compared against other fingerprints submitted to or retained by NGI.


Routine Uses:

During the processing of this application and for as long thereafter as your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics are retained in NGI, your information may be disclosed pursuant to your consent, and may be disclosed without your consent as permitted by the Privacy Act of 1974 and all applicable Routine Uses as may be published at any time in the Federal Register, including the Routine Uses for the NGI system, the FBI’s Central Records System, and the FBI's Blanket Routine Uses. Routine uses include, but are not limited to, disclosures to: employing, governmental or authorized non-governmental agencies responsible for employment, contracting, licensing, security clearances, access clearances, and other suitability determinations; local, state, tribal, or federal law enforcement agencies; criminal justice agencies; and agencies responsible for national security or public safety.


Social Security Account Number:

Your Social Security Account Number (SSAN) is requested under Public Law 107-188, 7 CFR Part 331, 9 CFR Part 121 and 42 CFR Part 73, which authorize the Attorney General to collect names and other identifying information in the security risk assessment process and to check criminal, immigration, national security and other electronic databases. Because other people may have the same name and birth date, your SSAN will be used to facilitate accurate identification and to help eliminate the possibility of misidentification of individuals for whom a security risk assessment or database check is being conducted. Completion of this form and provision of your SSAN is voluntary. However, failure to provide the requested information may delay or result in the denial of your security risk assessment.



PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT NOTICE

The purpose of this information is to assist the FBI in national security risk assessments for entities and individuals having access to selected toxins as required by the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness Response Act of 2002. The completion of this form is mandatory in order to obtain approval for access to select agents and toxins. The average burden cost per person to complete the form is estimated to be $15.44 with the average burden hours per person estimated to be 1.5 hours.
