Read this first: what a booth photo can be used for

Checked 2026-10-31 against official pages. What you can do with a printed booth photo depends on the document:

Passport and national ID card (passeport, carte d'identité) — Printed booth photo accepted? Yes
You hand in one printed photo, 3.5 cm wide and 4.5 cm high, less than 6 months old, sharp and without folds or marks. It must be taken by an approved (habilité) professional or in a booth that uses a system approved by the Ministry of the Interior. A booth print is fine if the booth carries that approval.

Driving licence (permis de conduire), applied for online with ANTS — Printed booth photo accepted? No
The online ANTS application asks for a digital photo-signature (e-photo), not a loose print. Approved photographers and booths give you an e-photo code on the photo sheet, which you type into the application. If you cannot get an e-photo, the online procedure lets you fill in and post a photo-signature form instead.

Residence permit (titre de séjour), e.g. employee / temporary worker card — Printed booth photo accepted? It depends — see below
For an online application you enter the e-photo code printed on the photo sheet from an approved photographer or booth. The documents list for this permit also asks for 3 photos. Check your prefecture's filing method before you go.

Photomaton booths (operator claim) — Printed booth photo accepted? It depends — see below
Photomaton says its ID photos follow the ICAO standard and that its booths support the secure ANTS photo-signature transfer, including for driving licence and residence permit applications. This is the operator's own claim; check that the booth you use is on the official list of approved booths.

Source and limits

Source: Photomaton’s official locator, every entry read 2026-10-31. Site names and addresses are shown as Photomaton publishes them.
Photomaton’s locator also lists La Réunion, Guadeloupe, Martinique and Saint-Barthélemy; they are grouped as their own regions. One location in Monaco is left out. Opening hours are shown as Photomaton publishes them; about half of all locations carry the same standard hours (daily 08:30–12:30 and 13:00–19:00), so check with the shop or station before a special trip.
Map links use Photomaton’s own coordinates. Where those coordinates are missing or clearly wrong (more than 12 km from the postcode, or outside France), the map link searches the address instead.
This is a neutral directory. We do not operate the booths and do not publish ratings or prices.
Numbers here are never added to other countries or to this site’s photo booth layer.
