Make a passport size photo online
Create a passport size photo from any picture taken with your phone. The default size is 3.5 x 4.5 cm at 300 DPI, which is the standard for Indian passport, visa and most exam forms. You can also enter a custom size such as 2 x 2 inch (51 x 51 mm) for US visa photos.
Crop the photo so the face is centred, pick the background colour your form asks for and download a JPG that is ready to upload or print.
How to use this tool
- Upload a clear front facing photo with even lighting.
- Adjust the crop so the head and shoulders fill the frame, then set the size and background colour.
- Download the passport photo. If the form has a KB limit, compress it afterwards with the Reduce Image Size tool.
