- DETAILED INFORMATION
Does Boots do passport photos?
Today, most Boots stores rely on CEWE Photostations where you can print a digital copy of your own passport photo prepared elsewhere – you can find a printing kiosk using the official Boots store locator. This service costs £0.59.
Boots remains one of the cheapest ways to print passport photos in the UK — but only if you already have a compliant digital template. Otherwise, you risk rejection and paying twice.
Boots Passport Photo Printing Details Appointment Not required Opening Hours Varies by store location, typically early morning (07:00–09:00) to evening (21:00–23:00) Price £0.59 What you get Up to 4 passport-size photos on a single print Acceptance guarantee None Boots offers a very cost-effective way to get printed passport photos, but it requires some preparation – this is why most people prepare a compliant template for printing.
✅ Boots does not check compliance with HM Passport Office rules – so you need to make sure your photo meets all HM Passport Office requirements before printing at Boots.
You can do this with PhotoBooth Online – along with a compliance check, we offer a 100% acceptance guarantee for your Boots passport photos.

About Online Boots Passport Photo Service
How exactly does it work?
Upload your photo, and we'll crop it to the passport photo size and remove the background. Then, a human expert will double-check the resulting picture against the rules – once it passes the checks, you can get your new passport photo in digital or printed form.What kind of photo do I upload?
It can be a regular picture of any size and background – for example, you can take it with your phone. But do make sure that your whole head and shoulders are visible, you're looking directly at the camera, and your face is evenly lit.Will my picture be accepted?
Yes, because we verify each picture against the official rules for UK passport photos. If there's any flaw, we'll give you clear instructions on how to fix it.What if it's rejected anyway?
Even if rejection does happen (which is most unlikely), we'll give you a full refund immediately. As another option, you can also request a free retake.How will I get my passport photos?
If you purchase digital pictures (a single image file + a code + a template), you'll be able to download them instantly and get a copy to your email. If you order prints, they will be delivered to you by Royal Mail – within 2 days.How do I print my photos at Boots?
Either order printouts using Boots' online printing service – or copy the template to your phone / USB drive and print it yourself in any Boots that has a photo kiosk. Whatever option you choose, make sure that the print size is 10x15cm (6x4").

Frequent Questions
Do Boots do passport photos?
Yes, some Boots stores have self-service photo booths for UK passport photos. These are usually Photo-Me machines operated by a third party — not Boots staff. You’ll receive 5 printed photos and a digital photo code. Availability may vary by location.
Prefer not to go in person? You can also create passport photos online using your phone – see how below.
How do I find a passport photo booth at Boots?
Boots does not list passport photo booths on its own website. To find a Photo‑Me booth inside (or near) a Boots store, use the official Photo‑Me booth finder:
- Go to the Photo‑Me booth finder
- Enter your postcode or town
- View nearby passport photo booths on the map
- Check the address to see if the booth is located inside a Boots store
What if there's no Boots passport photo booth near me?
You can create passport photos online using your phone – no booth or store visit needed.
- Take a photo with your phone and upload it here. Background and size don’t matter as long as your photo meets all other requirements (for example, avoid makeup in your passport photo)
- We crop it to 35×45 mm and remove the background, transforming it into a UK passport photo
- Our expert double-checks your image to ensure it meets UK passport rules
- Download a digital photo with a code and printable template – or get 8 printed copies delivered

Do Boots do digital passport photos?
Yes, Boots includes a digital photo in their package – as a photo code. If you use a Photo-Me booth at Boots, you’ll receive 4 printed copies of your UK passport photo – plus a unique photo code. This code contains a digital copy of your passport photo, which you can use to apply for your passport online.
Please note: at Boots, even if you only need a digital photo, you’ll still have to pay £10 for prints (similarly to post office passport photos). So why not save money with our service? For a lower price, you’ll get a digital photo without paying extra for prints you don’t need. Simply upload a regular self-taken snapshot, and we’ll turn it into a guaranteed picture for your UK passport.
What is the Boots passport photos price?
It’s £10 for 5 printed passport photos and a digital photo code – if you use a standard Photo-Me booth.
But with our online service, you’ll get a guaranteed UK passport photo with a code for much less. As an extra option, you’ll also get 8 prints with free Royal Mail delivery – and it’ll still be cheaper than the in-store service. Simply upload a casual self-taken picture to turn it into an expert-verified photo!
Plus, our service works perfectly for all ages and documents – whether it’s a baby, man or woman passport photo, or another ID photo you need, we’ll make you one!
