Print Your Passport Photo At Your Local CVS

How do I print photos at CVS?

Take your US passport photos online with PassportPhotos.com and use our “Print & Ship” service to print and ship your passport photos directly to your home. Alternatively, you can upload your new photo file to the CVS website to have it ready to print at your local CVS store (or nearest CVS pharmacy) for print for less than $0.50. You can easily find a CVS passport photo near me using the CVS store locator on their website.

Taking your passport photos online with PassportPhotos.com is more efficient than professional passport photo services offered at CVS Pharmacy. However, CVS.com® provides photo printing services to customers in the United States or U.S. territories.

To send your passport photos file to print at CVS, please follow the following steps:

Step 1: Take Your Passport Photo with PassportPhotos.com using your mobile or PC. Our software will run a biometric verification test and modify the image to ensure compliance and approval. If your photo passes the verification test, it will automatically clear the background around your head and adjust your head size as required.

Step 2: Open the order confirmation email on your PC or Mobile.

Step 3: When you use your mobile device, please make sure to press on the link (“Download Your Photos For Print”) and then click “Save” to save your photos to your “photo library.” If you use your PC, right-click on the photo link (“Download Your Photos For Print”) placed under your “Order items” section and then choose “save link as & save it as a .jpeg” image.

Step 4: Before going to the store, upload your digital photo file to the CVS website. Go online to the link: https://www.cvs.com/photo/prints.

*Certain CVS pharmacy staff may not understand the requirements for processing photo printing orders, which could lead to potential issues in order fulfillment.

Step 5: Choose the “Prints & Enlargements” option.

Step 6: Upload your saved photos to the designated website.

Step 7: Choose the 4” X 6” glossy photo paper.

Step 8: Pay online. The photos will be waiting for you at the store.

Step 9: You can pick up your photos in-store at your local CVS using their walk-in service, and you are all set to submit your photos and application.

What are your additional passport photo delivery options? (Home Delivery)

Alternatively, you can choose our most popular option – Home Delivery, using our Print & Ship Service. Our online service and physical fulfillment allow you to order passport photos from the comfort of your home.

We offer two convenient delivery options: Standard delivery, which takes 3-5 business days, and Expedited delivery, which takes 1-2 business days.

What is your Print & Ship Service:

Our Print & Ship service includes a dedicated fulfillment team that will print your passport photos on a required 4″ X 6″ glossy photo paper where you will have 2-6 photos (2″X2″ size each) and ship them to your address.

In addition, our customer service team is available to assist U.S. military personnel permanently assigned or on temporary duty overseas. For those on temporary duty overseas, please reach out to customer service for help with their orders while abroad. For assistance, please email our customer service team at [email protected].

How long does it take to process my order?

Your “Digital Photos” in PNG and JPEG files will be emailed to you within minutes after you place your order, saving you valuable time. If you choose the “Printed Photos” option, we will ship your photos through our “Print & Ship” service. The order processing usually takes place on the same day if you place your order by 4 PM. If not, do not worry. We will process your order within 24 hours during regular business hours and days (Monday – Friday). Ensure your photos meet the required specifications for passport applications.

How do I upload my digital photo to the government’s and the official websites?

Step 1: Open the confirmation email on your PC or Mobile.

Step 2: “Download Your Single Digital Photo” and then click “save” your photos to your “photo library”. If you use your PC, press “Right Click” on the photo link (“Download Your Single Digital Photo”) placed under your “Order items” section, then choose “save link as & save it as a .jpeg image file.

Step 3: You are all set. You can now upload your digital (single) photo to any official website that offers the option. You can also use digital passport photos for online applications.

How do I print my photo at home using my home printer?

Step 1: Have 4” X 6” glossy photo paper.

Step 2: Open the confirmation email on your PC or Mobile.

Step 3: When you use your mobile device, please make sure to press on the link (“Download Your Photos For Print”) and then click “save” to save your photos to your “photos library.” If you use your PC, press “Right Click” on the photo link (“Download Your Photos For Print”) placed under your “Order items” section, then choose “save link as” and save it as a .jpeg.

Step 4: Press “Ctrl+P” or right-click “Print,” and your print settings will appear. For quality, pick 4X6” paper with a minimum of 600 dpi. Also, remove all border spaces/gaps and print. Follow these steps to print passport photos at home.

Excellent Customer Service. Customer service via email was impressively fast. However, the ads and website information was accurate, my photos were available at CVS for 32 cents to print. Next time I might use thier service to print them tough.

Brilliant service - each photo I took was analyzed and where it was not sufficient quality. I was able to retake for free. When one is up to standard they take it and remove the background and make any changes necessary to get the photo to a standard where it will be accepted by the passport office. The one sent got accepted no problem. I would definitely recommend as probably the only way to pretty much guarantee your photo will be accepted.

We were extremely satisfied with the results. We took our own pictures with our phone then there software converted the photos into high-quality digital passport photos and emailed them to us in minutes. We uploaded the photos to the CVS website and printed them at a nearby CVS Pharmacy. We had our photos in hand the same night. It was very easy and simple to do.
