Asda Passport Photo Booth F.A.Q.

1. Is there a passport photo booth in Asda?

   Yes, many Asda stores have self-service passport photo booths, usually operated by Max Spielmann. These booths provide both printed photos and a digital code for online passport renewal.

   Availability varies by location, so it’s best to check the official Asda store locator or the Max Spielmann booth finder before visiting.

3. Do Asda do digital UK passport photos?

   Yes, they do – when using a photo booth, you can enter your email to receive a digital copy of your picture. However, you can’t purchase the digital photo alone – it’s included with the printed passport photos, so the full price of £12.99 still applies.

   If you only need a digital photo, consider the online service, where you can get it for £2.95.

4. What are Asda photo booth opening times?

   Asda photo booth hours depend on each store’s schedule. In most cases, the booths follow the supermarket’s opening hours, but it’s best to confirm using the official Asda store finder.

   Typical Asda passport photo booth availability

   • Smaller stores: about 7 AM – 11 PM
   • Large stores: usually 6 AM – 12 AM
   • 24-hour stores: booths typically open 24 hours

5. Does Asda offer a passport renewal service?

   Yes, some Asda locations have Max Spielmann stores that feature the “Apply & Go” service — an in-store option where a colleague helps you complete the online renewal application after taking your official photo.

   If you’re renewing, just bring your old passport. If you’re applying for a new passport, check the full documents checklist.

6. Can I print a pre-prepared photo at Asda?

   You can use PhotoBooth Online to prepare a digital passport photo, bring this template to an Asda store and print it out for the lower price of 55p only. After that, you can attach the printout to the application form.

   Alternatively, the Asda website has a special page where you can load your JPEG file and have it printed. You can collect it yourself or use the printouts shipping service and have the printout delivered straight to your address. The latter will cost you £2.5 per photograph. Please note this online passport photo app is somewhat limited (for example, it can’t remove the background or check your picture).

   In case you need a compliant headshot urgently (say, before a flight), PhotoBooth Online is one of the easiest ways to get it without paying twice the price. You don’t have to waste time looking for a photography machine or professional photographer. All you have to do is to find a few seconds and take a picture with your phone camera. Then you only need to visit a local store where you can have the passport photo template printed or use its digital version for online submission. At the end of the day, you save both time and money.

   What’s more, our passport photo service doesn’t have any limit to the number of photographs you can have processed. Plus, you have the time to do it without any rush—if you want, take dozens of pictures and then just pick the best one to convert it into the verified digital or printed format.

8. If I use the online service, what photo do I upload?

   Simply take a regular photo with your phone camera. The size and background don’t matter (we’ll edit them for you), but be sure to:

   • Keep your head and shoulders straight and fully visible
   • Look directly at the camera
   • Maintain a neutral facial expression
   • Avoid shadows on your face or neck

9. Will HMPO accept a passport picture made in PhotoBooth Online?

   Yes, our home professional service is programmed to verify all the parameters like size, quality, lighting, head proportions, background, etc. This way we ensure you meet the requirements for UK passport photos. Besides, we keep track of every change in these specifications and follow official guidelines when tuning our algorithms, allowing you to make a biometric photo conveniently and without any hassle.

   However, we won’t edit your clothes: so, if you’re unsure what to wear in your United Kingdom passport photo, try taking pictures in different outfits! Here, you can process as many photos as you like before checkout: we have no uploading limits.

10. How do I take a UK passport photo at home to print at Asda?

    If you want to do it without the help of our service, you’ll need to take a snapshot that meets all the rules.

    Follow these steps:

    1. Get Your Clothes Sorted Out: be sure to put on something casual and neutral that covers your shoulders. If you’re wearing any headgear, take it off, as your head should be fully visible (and your hair shouldn’t cover your face). The only exception is religious headwear. If you use glasses for medical reasons, you can leave them on (when used for styling purposes, sunglasses and transparent glasses aren’t allowed).
    2. Ensure Proper Lighting: If the sun isn’t shining too bright, use natural sunlight. If it’s dark outside, use an artificial source of light. However, you need to make sure the lighting is even and your facial features aren’t obscured by shadows.
    3. Arrange a Suitable Backdrop: find a room with a wall of plain colour (grey or off-white will do perfectly). Stand with your back against the wall, maintaining an upright and straight pose.
    4. Take Your Snapshot: Use the 35×45 aspect ratio. Keep a neutral facial expression—don’t smile, keep your mouth closed and look straight at the camera (after all, it’s not your usual selfie). If your picture turns out bad, don’t edit—just retake it.

    That’s it! If you follow every step thoroughly, the resulting image should be good to go—you can print it at an Asda location.
