All about Sam's Club Passport Photo

1. Does Sam's Club Still Do Passport Photos?

   In short, Sam’s Club no longer offers passport photo services in-store. However, you can still use Sam’s Club for printing your digital passport photos. If you’re looking to get a passport photo, you’ll need to either take your own photo or use an online service to ensure it meets the specifications, then print it through Sam’s Club or another service provider.
    
   To print at Sam’s Club go to Sam’s Club Photo > Photos & Customization > Prints > Standart & Professional Prints > Traditional Matte Prints > Upload Now. Upload a 4×6 template with passport photos, and complete the order.

2. 1. Discontinuation of In-Store Passport Photo Services

   Sam’s Club used to offer in-store passport photo services through the Photo Centers, but these services have been phased out in recent years. The Photo Centers were closed as part of a broader shift in Sam’s Club’s business model, which included reducing in-store photo services.
    
   As of 2023, Sam’s Club no longer provides passport photo services in-store, meaning you can no longer walk into a Sam’s Club location to have your passport photo taken or printed.

3. 2. Alternative to In-Store Passport Photos: Online Printing Service

   Even though you can’t get your passport photo taken in-store at Sam’s Club anymore, you can still use Sam’s Club for printing digital passport photos. If you have a digital passport photo, you can upload it to Sam’s Club’s online photo printing service and have it printed according to passport photo specifications.
    
   Here’s how you can use Sam’s Club for your passport photo needs:
    

   1. Take a photo of yourself that meets the official U.S. passport photo requirements (e.g., size, background, head position).
   2. Use an online service to edit and format your photo according to passport guidelines. Photobooth.online can help crop and resize your photo to the correct specifications and prepare a printable 4×6 sheet with six passport photos.
   3. Once your 4×6 sheet is ready, upload it to Sam’s Club’s photo center through their online platform.
   4. You can then order prints of your passport photo at Sam’s Club, which will be prepared according to the official size (usually 2″ x 2″).

4. 3. Why Sam's Club Discontinued Passport Photo Services

   The decision to discontinue passport photo services at Sam’s Club may have been influenced by several factors:
    

   • Declining demand for in-store photo services as more people began to use online photo services.
   • Advancements in mobile technology that allow customers to take and format their own photos at home or in local photo booths.
   • Cost-saving measures in reducing the footprint of physical photo centers.

    
   However, if you are still a Sam’s Club member and prefer using their printing services, the option to print digital passport photos remains available online.
