Tips for the Perfect Passport Photo

Lighting

Face a large window for natural, even light. Avoid direct sunlight and overhead-only lighting, which create harsh shadows under your eyes and nose.

Background

Stand 1–2 feet in front of a plain white wall. If you do not have one, use our AI background removal to replace any background with white.

Expression

Keep a neutral expression with your mouth closed and eyes open. Look directly at the camera. Most countries do not accept smiling photos.

Glasses & Accessories

Remove glasses (required by USA, UK, Australia, and many others). Remove hats and non-religious head coverings. Keep hair away from your face.

Camera Position

Hold the camera at eye level, about 4–5 feet away. Use the rear camera for better quality. Take multiple shots and choose the best one.

Printing

Print on photo paper at 100% scale (no “fit to page”). A 4R (4×6 in) print at a pharmacy costs under $0.50 and fits several passport photos.
