Our take: It carries the lowest average on the list, which is why it ranks fifth, but for film development specifically it's the specialist option. For anything precious, ask about their handling process up front.

Claim this spot › How the scoring works
Every number here comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is each shop’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, ranked against other Hong Kong photo services. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from over a thousand people carries real weight. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.
What photo printing costs in Hong Kong (2026)
Price depends on what you’re after. An ID or passport photo set, with lighting and retouching, costs more than a batch of standard prints run off a machine. A few things move the total: the photo type (document, portrait, or general prints), any retouching or makeup, express or one-hour finishing, and print size and finish. Film development is priced by roll and film type on top of any prints. Studios usually post their rates, so confirm the exact package and turnaround before you book.
Where to find them in Hong Kong
Most of these sit in Kowloon, clustered around Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei, with Photobi also running branches in Kwun Tong and Wan Chai on Hong Kong Island. Searching for photo printing near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and map so you can reach the closest studio, print shop or lab and check its hours before you head over.
What to ask before you print
- Which document or visa type is this photo for, and can you confirm it meets the size and background rules?
- Is retouching included, and can I sit in on the editing?
- How fast is turnaround, and is there an express or one-hour option?
- For prints, what sizes and finishes do you offer, and what’s the per-print price?
- For film, how do you develop and store negatives, and how are they returned?
- Do I need to book ahead, and do you offer makeup or hair?
Frequently asked questions
How did you choose these photo services?
We started from every photo studio, print shop and lab in Hong Kong with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See how the scoring works above.
Are these rankings paid?
No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.
How often is this updated?
The data carries a verified date, July 2026 on this page. We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.
Where can I get a passport or ID photo in Hong Kong?
Photogram Studio and Photobi HK both specialize in ID, passport and visa photos with retouching, and both are fast, often finishing in minutes. Confirm your document type when you arrive so the photo meets the rules.
Which shop is best for developing film?
True Face Pro Lab focuses on film development and prints, with a one-hour finishing option. For irreplaceable rolls, ask about their handling and negative-return process before you drop off.
The bottom line
Photogram Studio is the safe default for any ID, passport or professional photo on sheer track record, with Photobi a strong second for Korean-style portraits. Go to Canon Image Square for pro-grade prints, Copycat for fast general printing, and True Face for film. Confirm the package, turnaround and document rules before you book.
