Passport Photo Online
A passport photo is a small, standardized headshot every government requires with a passport application — a specific size, a plain background, a neutral expression, and your face positioned within an exact range. Vekyo turns a picture you already have into a passport photo sized to your country's published specification, entirely in your browser.
What is a passport photo?
Passport photos exist so immigration and border officials can reliably match your face to your travel document. Every country publishes its own exact size and positioning rules — for example the United States uses a 2 x 2 inch square, while the United Kingdom uses 35 x 45 mm — but most share the same underlying principles: a recent, unedited, front-facing photo against a plain light background, with a neutral expression and both eyes clearly visible.
General tips that apply almost everywhere
- Use a recent photo — most authorities require one taken within the last six months (some, like the UK, want the last month)
- Stand against a plain, evenly lit wall — avoid patterns, shadows, or textured backgrounds
- Face the camera directly with a neutral expression and both eyes open
- Remove glasses and head coverings unless worn for religious or medical reasons
- Avoid filters, beauty modes, or any photo editing — passport photos must be unaltered
Exact size, head positioning, and background rules vary by country — see your specific destination below rather than relying on general tips alone.
