Where to get a passport photo

You have several options for getting a passport photo: make one yourself online for free, or visit a pharmacy, post office, or photo studio. Making it yourself is the fastest and cheapest — you only pay for printing if you need a physical copy.

Online (free, fastest)

Use this passport photo maker to upload a phone photo, crop it to the official size, and download it. It runs in your browser, so it is private and instant — ideal for online applications that accept a digital photo.

Pharmacies and stores

  • In the US: CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, and Costco offer passport photos for roughly $8–$17.
  • In the UK: Boots, the Post Office, and supermarket kiosks.
  • These are convenient but cost more than printing your own 4 x 6 sheet.

Post office and photo studios

Many post offices that accept passport applications also take photos. Professional studios give the highest quality but at the highest price.
