How to make a passport photo online
- Pick your country and document from the list (passport, visa, ID).
- Upload a clear, front-facing photo taken against a plain wall.
- Drag and zoom so your head fits between the guide lines.
- Download the single photo for a kiosk, or the 4×6″ sheet to print several copies at home.
Passport photo sizes by country
Requirements differ by country. This tool crops to the correct dimensions and print resolution automatically. Common sizes:
| Country / document | Photo size | Notes |
|---|
Always confirm the latest rules with the authority receiving your application. Dimensions can be shared while face height, background, recency, print and digital-upload rules still differ.
Making a Schengen visa photo? Start with the 35×45 mm preset, then check the receiving embassy or visa centre because background and recency instructions can differ by country.

Tips for an accepted photo
- Neutral expression, eyes open, mouth closed.
- Plain light background — a white or off-white wall works best.
- Even lighting, no shadows on the face or behind you.
- No glasses glare, hats, or head coverings (except for religious reasons).

Frequently asked questions
Is this passport photo maker really free?
Yes. There are no watermarks and no sign-up. The tool is supported by ads on this page.
Do you store my photo?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser, so your image is never sent to any server.
Can I print passport photos at home?
Yes — use the 4×6″ sheet option, print it on photo paper (or at any print kiosk that accepts 4×6), and cut out the individual photos.
