Passport Size Photo Maker

Standard passport photo sizes

The Indian passport and most Indian forms use 3.5 × 4.5 cm (35 × 45 mm). The US passport and the Indian visa use 2 × 2 inches (51 × 51 mm). Canada uses 50 × 70 mm and China’s visa 33 × 48 mm. Pick the size from the list, or enter a custom size in millimetres if your form states something different.

What makes a photo acceptable

• Face the camera directly with a neutral expression and both eyes open.
• Use a plain white or light background with no shadows behind you.
• Your head, from chin to top of hair, should fill roughly 70–80% of the photo height.
• No caps or dark glasses; religious head coverings are usually allowed if the face is fully visible.
• Recent photo: most authorities want it taken within the last six months.

Rules differ by country and authority, so check the official guidance before printing.

Printing at home or at a shop

A 4 × 6 inch sheet holds eight 3.5 × 4.5 cm photos, which is the cheapest way to print at a photo studio or kiosk. An A4 sheet holds 30. Both are generated at 300 DPI, which is print quality. When printing, choose “actual size” or 100% scale; “fit to page” will shrink the photos and make them the wrong size. The light cutting guides help you trim neatly.

Using the photo online

Download the single photo for online forms. If the form has a KB limit, reduce it with the 20 KB or custom KB resizer. For exam portals with fixed pixel sizes, the exam photo resizer is quicker.

Private and free

Your photo is processed in your browser and never uploaded. There are no watermarks and no sign-ups.

Studio vs home printing

A 4×6 print at a photo studio usually costs much less than a set of passport photos, and gives glossy photo-paper quality. Home inkjet printers work too on photo paper; use the highest quality setting.
