Make a passport photo

Crop your photo to a passport or visa size with a face guide, set the file size, and save a print sheet with many copies. Check the official rules for your application first.

Files never leave your device

How to use it

  1. Step 1: Tap the box and choose a clear photo of your face. Then choose the photo size, for example India passport, US visa or UK passport, or type your own size.
  2. Step 2: Drag the photo into the frame, use the slider to size it, and line up your head with the face guide. Change brightness, straighten it, and change the background only if your office allows it.
  3. Step 3: Tap Make the passport photo. Download the 300 DPI photo and the 4 x 6 inch or A4 print sheets as JPG or PDF.

Frequently asked questions

Will my photo be accepted?

This tool cannot promise that. It gives you the pixel size, the shape and a guide for the head size, based on the rules we found. Offices change their rules and add their own, and many check photos by software. Always read the official rules for your application and compare your photo with them.

Where do the sizes come from?

Each choice says what it is based on and where we read it, and marks sizes that are only common sizes and not confirmed in an official document. The India passport size follows the Global Passport Seva photo notice. The US, UK and Indian visa choices follow the pages of those governments. The UAE visa size and the Schengen 35 x 45 mm size are common sizes. The date we read them is shown on the page.

Can I change the background to white?

Yes, with the Remove Background model, which downloads once (about 18 MB, shown before it starts) and runs on your device. But some offices say the photo must not be changed with computer software. If yours does, take the photo in front of a plain wall in even light instead of editing it.

What do 300 DPI and the file size limit do?

The photo is saved at 300 DPI, which is the print resolution used for the print sheets. If a form limits the file size, type the limit in KB. The tool lowers the picture quality only as far as needed and keeps the number of pixels. If it cannot fit the limit, it tells you.

How do the print sheets work?

The tool fits as many copies as it can on a 4 x 6 inch or A4 sheet, with a small gap and thin cut lines, and saves each sheet as a JPG and as a PDF. Print at 100 percent, with no scaling to fit the page, so the photos keep their real size.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. Cropping, adjusting, changing the background and making the sheets all happen in your browser on your device. Your photo never goes to our servers or anyone else.
