How to make it in 3 steps

  1. Download the 4 x 6 in (10 x 15 cm) sheet in Step 3 above — it is the size photo kiosks and print services expect.
  2. Upload it through a photo print app or website, or bring it on a USB drive or phone to an in-store kiosk.
  3. Choose a 4 x 6 in, borderless, actual-size (100%) print — do not let the store crop, scale, or auto-enhance it.
  4. Pick up your print and cut along the thin gray guide lines to separate the individual photos.

Printing at home

Prefer to print at home? Any inkjet or laser printer works — just print the same sheet at 100% scale on 4x6, A4, or US Letter photo paper.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I print my ID photo?

Download the 4x6 in or A4 sheet, then print it at any pharmacy photo kiosk, photo shop, online print service, or on a home printer as a regular borderless 4x6 photo at actual size (100%, no scaling) — no special paper or settings needed. Cut along the guide lines to separate your individual photos.

What size print do I need for a passport or ID photo sheet?

A 4 x 6 in (10 x 15 cm) print is the standard size accepted by photo kiosks and print services almost everywhere. A4 works well for home printers; 3.5x5 in, 5x7 in, and US Letter are also available.

Do I need special photo paper to print my ID photo?

No. Standard glossy or matte 4x6 photo paper from a photo kiosk or print service is enough. The app lays out your photos at 300 or 600 DPI so they print sharp at actual size.
