Are you getting a Greek passport? What size do you want?

The dimension requirements are different-not my choice.
AAA only takes US photos.

I take my own with a digital camera and use the sizing function in my computer's photo editing software. Buy blank printing paper for photos. What size do you need?

I’d suggest you use use the key words “(country name) passport photos” in Yelp or Google. Then phone them to find out if they do other counties. Many do, especially private businesses. Also check photo studios.

Yes, we know they are different, but what are they?

Are you looking for photos for a Greek passport, or something else?

Where are you located? In major cities with consulates, there is often a place near the consulate that knows how to take the required photos. For instance, I work near the Polish consulate in New York. Around the corner from the consulate, there's a little shop, with a sign in English and Polish, saying they take Polish passport photos. A Greek consulate would probably know where to get appropriate photos made nearby.

Presumably, since you posted in the "GREECE" forum, you want a Greek passport, and your reference to 'AAA" suggests you are in the US.

Print out the info from this site-- http://www.passport.gov.gr/en/npc-content/npc-periexomeno/technical-specifications.html--- and go to a photo studio and have them take a photo that fits the listed requirements.

If you are trying to do something else, you need to provide more specifics, if you want useful answers.

I have used a relatively inexpensive computer program that takes an image file and resizes it to meet the requirements for different countries. I then send the file it creates to an online photo printer (Walmart does this, too). You just need a photo of your head and shoulders in front of a blank background. The program superimposes a guide for how much you need to stretch or shrink the image to make your head the right size.

I'm away from my computer so I don't know the name of the specific program I use, but I'll bet there are lots of ones available. These days, I also expect there are a number of apps for phones that do the same thing.

effcapri you are confusing all of us because you don't give key information. You know what AAA is, so presumably you are from the USA (altho you provide no info as to your country) ... which means you have a USA passport. THAT is the passport you use to travel abroad, anywhere abroad. Yet it seems that you are trying to get another size of photo, for an additional passport. For what reason??? Why? If you are American, you do not get another country's passport.... Please do clarify.
