2×2 Passport & Identification Photo Services

Professional Photos — Taken & Printed On-Site

​

A proper identification photograph is an important—and often overlooked—part of many government applications, licensing processes, permits, and professional credentials. An incorrect photo size, outdated photograph, poor background, or improperly prepared image can create unnecessary delays or require an applicant to submit a replacement.

At Majeed Guns & Firearms School, we make this part of the process easy. We can take your photograph and print physical 2×2 photos on-site while you wait, so you can leave with photographs ready to include with your application.

​

Why Are 2×2 Photos Used?

The 2-inch by 2-inch photograph is one of the most widely recognized formats for official identification photographs in the United States. Most notably, it is the standard photo size used for U.S. passport applications, subject to the U.S. Department of State's current passport-photo requirements.

The standardized dimensions allow government agencies and licensing authorities to receive photographs in a consistent format that clearly displays the applicant's identity.

Depending on the particular agency and application, passport-style photographs may also be requested for various permits, licenses, identification documents, credentials, and background-related applications.

​

What Can 2×2 Photos Be Used For?

Our 2×2 passport-style photographs can be useful for a variety of applications, depending on the requirements of the issuing agency, including:

  • U.S. passport applications and renewals

  • Pistol permit and firearms-license applications

  • Non-resident permit applications

  • Multi-state licensing applications

  • Professional licenses and credentials

  • Security and identification credentials

  • Government applications

  • Certain identification cards

  • Application packets requiring a recent photograph

  • Other licensing, certification, or administrative purposes requiring a 2×2 photograph

Because requirements can vary between agencies, we always recommend confirming the current photograph specifications for the particular application you are submitting.

​

Passport Photos

Our 2×2 photo service isn't limited to pistol-permit students.

If you need photographs for a U.S. passport application or renewal, we can provide passport-style photographs prepared in the standard 2×2 format. Passport photographs must comply with specific requirements involving the photograph's dimensions, positioning, background, image quality, and how recently the photograph was taken.

Having the photograph properly prepared before submitting your passport application can help prevent avoidable problems associated with an unacceptable photograph.

​

Why Does the 2×2 Size Matter?

When an agency specifically requests a 2×2 photograph, submitting a different size may result in the photograph being rejected or the applicant being asked to provide another one.

The 2×2 format provides a standardized image that can be incorporated into an applicant's file, permit, license, credential, or identification process. For applications with strict photo specifications—particularly U.S. passports—the dimensions of the photograph are only one part of the requirement. Head positioning, background, lighting, facial expression, image quality, and other specifications can also matter.

That is why simply having a photograph of yourself isn't necessarily enough. The photograph needs to meet the requirements of the agency receiving it.

​

Ideal for Multi-State Permit Applicants

Students applying for permits in several states may encounter applications requiring physical identification photographs. Instead of leaving class and making another trip to a pharmacy or photo center, we can prepare the photographs needed for your application packets right at our location.

If multiple physical photographs are needed, additional copies can be prepared for the different applications.

This is especially convenient for our Multi-State Pistol Permit students, who may be assembling several application packets at the same time.

​

Part of Our One-Stop Application Services

Our goal is to eliminate as much confusion and unnecessary running around as possible.

Rather than completing your training and then having to visit several different businesses to finish your paperwork, many application-related services can be handled in one place.

Depending on the program and application, our services can include 2×2 passport-style photographs, fingerprinting, notarization, application preparation, paperwork review and auditing, and assistance organizing application packets for submission.

​

Walk In With a Requirement. Walk Out With Your Photos.

No searching for a photo center.
No separate pharmacy visit.
No trying to print and size the photograph yourself.

We take the photograph, prepare it in the appropriate 2×2 format, and print your physical copies on-site.

​

Whether you're preparing a passport application, pistol permit application, multi-state permit packet, professional credential, or another application requiring passport-style photographs, our photo service provides a fast and convenient way to get the photographs you need.
