A free 2x2 photo template for 4×6 prints
This tool takes a photo you have already cropped to 2×2 inches and puts two copies on a 4×6 sheet with cut lines. It doesn't edit, check or crop the photo — what you upload is what gets printed.
When to use this template — and when not to
Use it if you already have a square 2×2 photo with the head at the right size (1 to 1⅜ inches for a U.S. passport, per the DS-11 instructions), or you need a spare print.
Use the baby passport photo tool instead if you only have an uncropped phone photo, or want shadows and hands checked and the head cropped to size first.
Printing tips
Upload the whole 4×6 sheet to the lab, not the single photo, or it will be enlarged. Matte or glossy both work. Measure one photo before cutting: exactly 2 inches each side. More in where to print 2×2 photos.
