Passport photo sizes and pixels
Official passport and visa photos must match printed dimensions and composition rules, not just approximate height and width. The US Department of State specifies a 2×2 inch photo with the head sized within a defined range; a common digital target is 600×600 pixels at sufficient resolution for printing. EU ICAO-style photos often use 35×45 mm, frequently represented as 413×531 pixels for online submissions.
US, EU, India, UK, and print quality
India commonly uses the same 413×531 pixel template as many EU online forms. UK passport photos use a different aspect (for example 350×450 pixels in many digital guidelines). Always confirm the latest requirements on the issuing authority’s site: rules for glasses, expression, and background color change over time.
For print, 300 DPI is a typical target—your pixel dimensions should match the physical size you plan to print. A plain white or off-white background and even lighting reduce the chance of rejection. After resizing, use our target-size compressors if the portal also caps file size in kilobytes.
