A clear front-facing photo works best. It stays on your device — nothing is uploaded.

How it works

Passport offices are strict about size and head position, and relaxed about almost everything else. This maker handles the strict parts: it crops your photo to the exact official ratio, shows you where the head should sit, prints it at 300 dpi so it stays sharp on paper, and can squeeze the file under the KB limit your online form demands.

The white background option places your photo on plain white. Be honest with yourself about what that does: it fills the frame behind a photo that already has a clear or transparent background. It does not remove a busy bedroom wall. For that, run the photo through our Background Remover first, choose the white background there, then bring the result here for the exact size.

No tool can promise your photo will be accepted. That call belongs to the passport office or embassy. What this page guarantees is the technical side they check first: correct dimensions, sensible head size, and a file inside the stated limit. A recent photo, a plain background, a neutral expression and no glasses glare cover most of the rest.

Questions people ask

Which size should I choose?

35 × 45 mm covers India, the UK, Schengen visas and Australia. US passports and visas use a square 2 × 2 inch photo. Canada uses 50 × 70 mm and China visas use 33 × 48 mm. If your form states a size in millimetres, match it to the closest option here.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. Cropping, resizing and the print sheet are all built inside your browser. The photo never leaves your device.

How does the KB limit work?

Many government forms reject photos above a set size, often 50 or 100 KB. Pick the limit before making your photo and the tool lowers the JPG quality step by step until the file fits, then shows you the final size.

How do I print the photos cheaply?

Download the 4×6 print sheet and print it as an ordinary photo print at any photo shop or kiosk. It holds several copies at the exact official size, ready to cut out, for the price of one normal print.
