Mexico passport photo at a US consulate
You do not buy a Mexico passport photo for a consulate in the United States. The consulate captures the portrait during the appointment. This page explains that and points you to a US passport photo if that is the document you actually need.

Rules
Consulate pages say a printed photo is not required because the portrait is captured digitally at the appointment. The consulate sites blocked an automated read, so this is partly confirmed from official excerpts.
Get2x2 does not sell a Mexico passport print. If you need a United States passport photo, that is a different document. We do not currently list a Mexico visa photo.
Do
- Book the consulate appointment and bring the identity papers they list.
- Plan to have the photo taken there.
- Use the US passport page if that is the passport you are renewing.
Don't
- Do not pay for a printed Mexico passport photo for a US consulate appointment.
- Do not arrive expecting to hand over a studio print.
- Do not treat this page as a checkout.
