Passport / Visa: what to know
- Use a plain white background with no shadows behind your head.
- Look straight at the camera with a neutral expression and both ears visible.
- No dark glasses, caps or filters, and no edits that change how your face looks.
How to resize your photo for Passport / Visa
- 1Tap “Resize Passport / Visa photo”. The size, KB limit and background are already set for Passport / Visa.
- 2Take a new photo or pick one from your gallery. It doesn't need to be the right size.
- 3Drag and zoom until your face sits inside the oval, then make the background white if needed.
- 4Download. The file is 630 × 810 px, under 250 KB, JPG: ready to upload in the Passport / Visa form.
Common mistakes
- A busy or dark background. Stand in front of a plain, light wall, or use the background cleaner.
- Face too small. Your head and shoulders should fill most of the photo.
- A cap, dark glasses or strong shadows on the face.
- An old photo. The photo should look like you do today.
- Compressing in another app that changes the pixel size, so the form rejects it.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Passport / Visa photo size?
Passport / Visa asks for the photo as a JPG file of under 250 KB, sized 630 × 810 px. These values haven't been confirmed against the latest notice yet, so check your notification.
Can I use the same photo for a visa?
Not always. Each country sets its own photo size; for example, the US visa needs a 2 × 2 inch photo. Use the 75% Face Coverage tool, which has a US visa size.
Is my photo uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. PhotoSuvidha resizes and compresses the image inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The image is never sent to our server.
Is it free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no charge.
