Timpsons Passport Photos: In-Store vs. Online

  1. Service Availability

    Do Timpsons do passport photos in-store?

    Yes, most Timpson locations in the UK take professional passport photos and pictures for other official documents.

    But not every location has photo equipment, so it’s best to use the official Timpson store finder to check in advance – look for “Passport & ID Photos” in the shop details.

  2. Process

    How do you take a photo at a Timpson store?

    A Timpson employee will take your photo, ensure it meets the requirements, and print it on the spot.

    It takes just a couple of minutes – but if you visit during peak hours, you may have to wait.

  3. Price

    How much do Timpsons charge for passport photos?

    In-store at Timpson, passport photos cost £12.99 (in some locations, it may be more). This price includes four printed images with a digital code.

  4. Cheaper Alternative

    What if I don't want to pay £12.99+?

    You can get the same result here online — with guaranteed compliance — for just £6.95.
