Passport & Visa Photo Maker

Pick your country and document, and the tool works to the published specification: physical size, pixel dimensions at 300 DPI, and background guidance — every preset shows its official source and the date we last verified it. Position your portrait with zoom and move controls against an on-screen guide (crown and chin lines), then export the exact-size photo or a printable sheet (A4 or 4×6 inch) with cut guides.

Two honesty rules: this tool does no face recognition or biometric measurement — the guide is approximate and the issuing authority's template prevails; and a background colour can only fill transparency, it cannot repaint the wall behind you. Acceptance is always the authority's decision — check the final photo against the official guidance before submitting.

Please read: this tool sizes and crops to the published specification — it cannot guarantee acceptance. Lighting, expression, head size and background rules are judged by the issuing authority. Always check the final photo against the official guidance linked for your preset before submitting.

Frequently asked questions

Will my photo definitely be accepted?

No tool can promise that — acceptance depends on lighting, expression, shadows, head size and the officer's or automated checker's judgement. This tool guarantees the measurable parts (size, dimensions, DPI) and shows you the official guidance for the rest.

Can it change my photo's background to white?

Not honestly: repainting a real backdrop around hair and shoulders is an AI segmentation job, and a bad edge is a common rejection cause. The background setting here only fills transparent areas (e.g. a cut-out PNG). Take the photo against the right background — the preset tells you which.

How do I print the sheet correctly?

Print the PDF at 100% / "actual size" (never "fit to page"), on photo paper. The cut guides are drawn at the exact official size, so a ruler check of one photo confirms the whole sheet.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. Cropping, rendering and the print sheet all happen in your browser.
