Passport / Visa upload pack
Passport & Visa Photo Maker

Last verified: September 22, 2026
Verified for Indian Passport Seva's 35 × 45 mm physical-photo use case and the Government of India's regular visa and e-Visa digital-photo workflows. Other countries and missions have different rules.

Upload specifications
Select each processable asset in the tool above. Capture-only assets must be completed inside the official portal.
| Asset | Format | File size | Dimensions / capture | Key guidance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indian passport physical-photo crop | JPG/JPEG working file | No digital KB range stated for this physical-photo use case | 35 × 45 mm ratio; working export 413 × 531 px | Passport Seva specifically asks applicants below age four to carry a recent 4.5 × 3.5 cm photo with a white background. This preset is a crop aid, not an online-upload guarantee. |
| Regular India visa photograph | JPEG | 10KB–300KB | Square; 350 × 350 to 1000 × 1000 px | Use a full-face front view, eyes open, plain light or white background, no shadows, and no border. |
| India e-Visa photograph | JPEG | 10KB–1MB | Square; minimum 350 × 350 px | Use a clear recent front-facing photo on a plain light or white background without spectacles or borders. |
Good preparation examples
- Use the 35 × 45 mm crop only for a Passport Seva workflow that requests a carried physical photograph.
- Choose regular visa or e-Visa separately because their current maximum file sizes differ.

Common upload errors
Choosing a generic passport size for every visa
Open the destination's official guide and match its print or digital specification.
AI background replacement changes hair or face edges
Inspect the result closely; use a naturally plain background when possible.
Head size or eye position is outside the guide
Recrop with the official face-alignment diagram before submission.
Frequently asked questions
Which passport photo size should I choose?
Choose the exact size stated by the issuing authority. Common 35 × 45 mm and 2 × 2 inch formats are not interchangeable.
Does this tool verify biometric head position?
No. It resizes the image. Compare the final crop with the official face-position diagram before submission.
Not sure whether the file is ready?
Run the downloaded output through the Universal Form File Checker and compare it with the active official instructions before submission.
