For travel agencies

One Schengen photo workflow for every embassy
when staff edits should not vary by destination

Agencies waste time reconciling slightly different staff edits across Schengen applications. Passprint applies the same crop, background, and resolution standards on every file. Passprint automates the entire workflow from upload to print-ready sheet in just a few clicks.
