Where to print your passport photo in NYC

If you already have your passport photo taken and edited and you don’t need the full service, you can get straight to printing. Well, it’s easy to say that there are more than a few places, but we can recommend one method that speeds up the process and saves you some money: printing in a store. You can print your passport photos in Target, Walgreens, Walmart, and many other similar stores for less than half a dollar (usually around $0.25) – all you need to do is put your 2×2 inches passport pictures on a 4×6 inches template and request them printed on a normal, postcard-size page. Later you will need to cut out your copies. 

Prices of NYC passport photos

Remember that with passport photos you should never have to pay more than is needed. When it comes to printing photos, the price shouldn’t go over half a dollar for 2 (two) copies (using the method shown above). If you want the full service, prices will vary slightly depending on where you go. In a store, the price should be between 9 and 15 dollars, similarly in a post office. Passport offices sometimes have lower prices but it also comes with a longer waiting time.
