How to print a passport size photo

Once you have made your passport photo, you can print it yourself at home or at any pharmacy or photo shop. The trick is to place several copies on a standard photo-paper size so you do not waste paper.

How to print a passport size photo

  1. 1

    Make your passport photo

    Crop your photo to the correct country size and set the background.

  2. 2

    Generate a print sheet

    Choose a sheet size — 4 x 6 in, 5 x 7 in, or A4 — and the tool tiles multiple copies with cut guides.

  3. 3

    Download the sheet

    Download the sheet as a high-resolution JPG or PNG at 300 DPI.

  4. 4

    Print at 300 DPI

    Print on glossy or matte photo paper at home, or upload the file to a pharmacy/print kiosk.

  5. 5

    Cut along the guides

    Use the printed guide lines and a paper trimmer for clean, accurate edges.

Best paper and settings

  • Use photo paper (glossy or matte) rather than plain paper for a professional finish.
  • Set your printer to its highest quality / photo mode and disable "fit to page" scaling so the dimensions stay exact.

Printing at a pharmacy or kiosk

Download the 4 x 6 sheet and order a single 4 x 6 print at any pharmacy (CVS, Walgreens, Boots) or supermarket photo counter — it usually costs under a dollar and yields several passport photos.
