Every year, approximately 110,000 people apply for passports in Hawaii. Whether you are preparing for an international vacation or renewing an expiring document, securing a compliant 2x2 inch passport photo is a critical first step in the application process.
While many residents traditionally visit retail chains to get their photos taken, options are spread across the islands. Longs Drugs, owned by CVS, operates around 70 locations statewide, and the U.S. Postal Service has over 110 post offices. Additionally, there are about 11 Walgreens and 10 Walmart stores that may offer photo services, though availability can vary by location.
If you need expedited processing or have an urgent travel situation, the Honolulu Passport Agency is located in the Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole Federal Building. However, for standard applications and renewals, you can save time and money by taking your photo at home. Perfect Passport allows you to snap a compliant picture with your phone for just $7.95, ensuring it meets all State Department guidelines without the hassle of driving to a store.
