About the Online Tesco Passport Photo Service

  1. What do I get and how much is it?

    For £2.95, you'll get a digital passport photo + code + a printable template with 8 copies of your picture. For £6.95, you'll get the same digital package + 8 prints.

  2. How and when do I get my photos?

    The digital picture, code, and template can be downloaded instantly (plus, you'll get their copies to email). If you order prints, they'll be delivered to you in 2-5 working days by Royal Mail.

  3. How can you guarantee acceptance?

    We'll check your passport photo against the official rules of His Majesty's Passport Office. If there's anything wrong, we'll let you know and give you clear instructions on how to correct it.

  4. What if my picture is rejected anyway?

    Thanks to our expert verification, this is very unlikely—but if it does happen, we'll quickly give you a full refund or retake and double-check your picture for free (whichever you choose).

  5. How do I print your template at Tesco?

    You can either get it printed using Tesco's online printing service or a photo printing kiosk. Whichever you choose, simply print the template on a 6x4" sheet of photo paper.

  6. Can I get pictures for other documents?

    Here, you can get photos for any ID you need: passport, visa, driving licence, bus pass, etc. Whatever the document, we'll make sure that your picture meets the requirements for it.

In-Store Passport Photos at Tesco: F.A.Q.

  1. Does Tesco have a photo booth?

    Yes, Tesco does have photo booths and in-store photo studios in select locations. To avoid a wasted trip, you can find the nearest Tesco locations that provide this service in your area:
     

    1. Open the official store locator.
       
    2. In the first field, enter your town, city, or postcode.
       
    3. In the middle one, select the All outlets option in the drop-down box.
       
    4. In the last field, choose Passport Photo Booth or Passport Photos ID & Visa and click Find stores—you’ll see a list of the nearby stores where you can get passport photos, either via a photo booth or in an in-store studio.

     
    If the closest photo machine/shop is too far away, use the online service to take a background-free UK passport photo at home or work—and get more at a lower price.

  2. How much are passport photos at Tesco?

    In a photo booth, you get 4 or 5 printed pictures, a digital copy of your photo and a photo code for £10 (the number of prints depends on the machine’s make).
     
    In the online Tesco passport photo service, it’s £2.95 for a digital picture, a printable template and a code to apply online. For £6.95, you can get 8 printouts (the digital photos are also included).
     
    If you’re worried about the online service’s privacy, rest assured. Our home professional service won’t store your picture. What’s more, your image won’t be seen by or shared with anyone: it’s an autonomous program that will edit and size it.

  3. Are in-store pictures guaranteed?

    Yes, your passport photos will be checked against the official standards of HMPO, whether you take them in a photo booth or at a studio.
     
    If your passport photos are rejected anyway, Tesco will give you either a free retake or a refund (whichever you choose).
     
    Please note that the guarantee applies only to the pictures taken in-store. For example, if you edit your passport photo in Photoshop and print it at Tesco, you won’t get a satisfaction guarantee.
     
    The online service also offers an acceptance guarantee—on this page, you can get a 100% valid passport photo that HMPO will accept. We’ll remove your background and set the right size so that you get it right the first time. Compliance guaranteed!

  4. How long does it take to use a photo booth?

    Similarly to our online service, it only takes a few minutes to get a passport photo from a booth.
     
    Still, it also takes time to get to the store. If you’re short on time, use this 24/7 online Tesco passport photo booth for as low as £2.95—you can get digital passport pictures or eight prints verified by a trained expert.

  5. What are Tesco's opening hours?

    Tesco stores open at 6-7 am and close at 10-11 pm (a few work 24/7). Also, the hours are shorter on holidays.
     
    Don’t have enough time to visit Tesco’s photo booth or just need a picture faster? If this is the case, you can get your photo more quickly (right at home or at work) by using the online service—click ‘Upload Photo’ and get it now.

  6. Can I print a passport photo at Tesco?

    Yes, you can prepare a 6×4″ template with multiple copies of your image and get it printed using the online printing service.
     
    Alternatively, you can print your pictures in person using a photo printing kiosk. To find a store that has one, use the store locator.
     
    To prepare a Tesco-ready template and resize your photo to the passport size, you can use our service.

  7. What are Tesco's prices for passport photo printing?

    One 6×4″ print costs £0.60 if you arrange a free in-store pick-up. As an option, you can order home delivery, which costs an extra £1.99 and is done within 1-2 working days.

  8. Does Tesco take photos for other documents?

    Yes, you can get pictures for different visas, driving licences, transport and student cards, job IDs, and many other identity documents.

  9. Can Tesco staff help me with my passport application?

    Yes, there’s the Apply & Go service available at select Max Spielmann branches located at Tesco stores. As part of this service, the staff will complete your passport application (available for UK passports only) while you wait.
     
    Please note that you may need to provide valid identification to use the service (although, you should be able to use an expired passport as ID).
