Not sure what size your passport or visa photo should be? Different countries use very different formats. Pick your document in PassportNinja and it resizes any photo to the exact official dimensions and head height for you — free, with a plain white background and a printable sheet.
You don't pay to find out if your photo is valid. The compliance check and the printable sheet are both free. No card, no account.

We looked at our own upload logs rather than guess: in the 40 days we've been measuring (13 July – 21 August 2026), 354 uploads came through PassportNinja. Every single one — 100% — landed comfortably inside the file-size limit; none were even within 10% of it, and none went over. If a photo gets rejected here, in our experience it's essentially never because the file itself was too big.
The average upload was 1.68 MB and the largest was 24.06 MB; the most common band was 1.0–2.0 MB (107 uploads), followed by 2.0–4.0 MB (57 uploads) — 164 of the 354 uploads, in fact, landed in exactly those top two bands, ordinary phone-camera output, not specially prepared files. This size checker itself was opened 4 times in the same period. The real variable isn't file size, it's whether the head lands inside the official height band below — that's what actually decides whether a photo passes, and that holds across every country template on the site, not just this one.
Passport photos are not one-size-fits-all. Two things vary per country: the overall photo dimensions and how tall your head must be inside them. Here are the formats PassportNinja builds automatically:
Two more line up with sizes already in the list even though they're not named above: Sri Lanka and Nepal both officially require 35×45 mm, the same figure as the Schengen group, so picking that template covers them too. Two others genuinely don't match anything built in — Malaysia (35×50 mm) and the UAE (40×60 mm, 4×6 cm) — so for either of those, use PicReviver's free-form crop to set the exact millimetre size by hand rather than picking one of the fixed templates here.
Some countries describe their ID photo in centimetres rather than inches — you might see it called a 4x4 photo size, though the real millimetre requirement still varies by country, so pick your document above rather than go by a rule of thumb.
Two photos can both be 35×45 mm and only one be valid, because the head has to fill a specific height. That's the single most common reason a self-made photo is rejected: the face is too small (arm's-length selfie) or too large (cropped too tight). PassportNinja measures your head from chin to crown and shows you whether it lands inside the required band for your chosen document — a genuine size check, not just a resize.
PassportNinja handles the mechanical part: it crops to the exact size, scales your head to the required height and replaces the background with plain white, then gives you a digital file at 600 dpi plus a printable 10×15 cm sheet. It does not judge lighting, expression or glasses, and it can't guarantee acceptance — that's always the issuing office's call. Follow the checklist for the things a tool can't see.
Ready to make the photo itself? Jump straight to the US passport photo tool for the 2×2 inch square. The UK passport photo tool covers the 35×45 mm size instead. Indian passport photo uses that same 2×2 inch square as the US — this same passport photo, Indian passport size or any other country, comes out the exact same way. Chinese passport photo is 33×48 mm. And Canada passport photo is bigger still, 50×70 mm — each tool applies its own size automatically.
Only need to resubmit one page of a multi-page application, not the whole PDF? ScanReviver's split PDF pulls out just the page range you need.
It depends on the country — however you ask it: passport image size, passport pic size, passport size photo dimensions, size passport photo, passport picture size, size of photograph for passport, picture size for passport, or passport size pictures, the number itself is 2×2 inch (51×51 mm) for the US and India, 35×45 mm across most of Europe and Australia, 33×48 mm for China, 50×70 mm for Canada. Pick your document and this passport size photo maker sizes it for you automatically. If you're checking passport photos size requirements for more than one family member, just run each photo through separately — the tool remembers your chosen country between uploads. What is a passport size photograph? What size is a passport pic? Both ask the same thing as the standard passport size photo (also called standard passport photo size) — the country-by-country figures above are the answer.
People ask this two ways: what size is passport size, or what is the size of a passport photo for their own country specifically? There's no single universal answer — it depends on the document, which is exactly why this checker asks you to pick a country first rather than assuming one fixed size.
PassportNinja measures your head from chin to crown and compares it to the official band for your country, showing you the number. If it's out of range it tells you, so you can retake.
Yes — upload any front-facing photo and it crops and scales it to the exact official dimensions, then whitens the background. Online passport size photo means this same one-upload crop. Passport size photograph online is that identical process. Online create passport size photo works the same way — upload, crop, done. Resize image to passport size starts from whichever direction you already have. A passport size photo resizer is just this page's other name for it.
Yes — no account, no watermark. See ID photo maker for non-passport documents like ID cards and licences.
Same basic job as a passport id photo maker or photo id creator, whichever of those you tried first — Cutout.pro and PhotoGov both crop and check the geometry the same way, some leaning on an AI label for the same face-detection step. The difference shows up at the download: those charge for the watermark-free file, this doesn't, on desktop or as an app-free mobile page.
Yes — the same checker covers ID cards, driving licences and residence permits: pick your document and it resizes to the exact official id photo size for that country. This tool also resizes an identity card size photo to the exact official dimensions for that document, with the same crop and white background applied. A passport id size check costs nothing — no account needed, just pick the country and upload. A passport size id result comes as both a digital file and a printable sheet.
Both. The passport photo printing size most photo labs expect is a 10×15 cm (4×6 inch) sheet with several copies laid out, which is exactly the printable sheet this tool generates. That's the same 4x6 photo size most drugstore photo counters already keep in stock, so the sheet prints onto standard paper without any special ordering. For the digital file, the export is 600 dpi; the exact passport photo size in pixels then follows from the millimetre size of your chosen document at that resolution, so it differs slightly by country. That covers the passport size photo print question — download the sheet and take it to any photo counter or drugstore kiosk. Passport size photo printing means that same sheet, ready to print at 10×15 cm. Wondering how to print passport size photo copies without a special app? Just take that same 10×15 cm sheet to any pharmacy or photo counter and hand it over as is.
This checker only measures against fixed government dimensions, not a general instagram photo size or any other social-media ratio. For a square Instagram post, a 4:5 print or any other custom ratio, PicReviver's crop tool works free-form or to a preset ratio, with no official rules attached.
Upload your photo and PassportNinja measures your head from chin to crown against the official band for the country you pick, showing you the exact millimetre number rather than leaving you to eyeball it. It flags the result if you're outside the range.
It depends on the country — see the size list above for the exact millimetre figure. To check a photo you already have, upload it here and the tool reports the finished size in both millimetres and pixels rather than making you measure it by hand — the passport pic size in pixels, the passport picture pixel size, the size of passport picture in cm, and the passport size picture in inches or passport picture size in inches, all read off the same result.
It's the head-height measurement every country's rules are built around: the distance from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head (the crown), measured on the finished photo. PassportNinja measures exactly this and compares it to your country's official band.
Most countries want a photo taken within the last 6 months that still looks like you — resizing an old photo with this tool doesn't make it recent if your appearance has changed since it was taken.
Yes — this page is that checker. Upload your photo, pick your country, and it measures the head height and background against the official rules and tells you if something's off, all free with no account. A passport photo size checker free search lands on this exact page. A passport photo size checker online tool is that same page too.
Not a separate page — one tool covers all of it. A us passport photo size checker means picking the US above. A uk passport photo size checker means picking the UK. The same goes for a canadian passport photo size checker and an indian passport photo size checker search — pick that country instead. A passport size photo checker india search lands on that identical India option. A us passport size photo requirements checker is the identical tool, just phrased around "requirements" instead of "checker".
Not as a fixed template — an nz passport size photo checker and an ethiopian passport size photo checker aren't among the 13 built in, so check the exact official size first, then use PicReviver's free-form crop to set it by hand, the same workaround already covered above for Malaysia and the UAE. A malaysia passport size photo checker gets that same honest answer: 35×50 mm, not a built-in template.
Yes — a passport size photo dimensions checker means uploading here: pick your country, and the tool measures your existing photo's crop and head height against the official figures rather than making you calculate anything. A passport size photo ratio checker means that same upload. A passport size photo size checker is the same tool under a slightly repeated name.
Both, depending on the country: the US and India use inches (2×2 in / 51×51 mm), most of Europe, the UK and Australia use millimetres (35×45 mm). Pick your country above and the tool works to whichever figure that country's rules use.
2×2 inches (51×51 mm) is the square format the US and India both use, with the head measured from chin to crown inside it — not the same as a plain 600×600 pixel image unless your source photo happens to match already. Pick US or India above, upload your photo, and PassportNinja crops and scales it to exactly 2×2 inches, then exports a 1200×1200 px digital file at 600 dpi plus a printable sheet. A smaller relative, the 1×1 inch US visa photo, is also one of the built-in templates. The same 2×2 inch figure is what a dv photo checker or uscis photo checker looks for too, since Green Card lottery entries and other USCIS immigration photos share the identical US passport spec.
It depends on the country: 2×2 inch (51×51 mm) for the US and India, 35×45 mm across most of Europe and Australia, 33×48 mm for China, 50×70 mm for Canada — see the size list above. Pick your document and PassportNinja measures and crops to that exact figure automatically.
Yes — this page is that passport size photo checker. Upload your photo, pick your country, and it measures the head height and background against the official rules, flagging anything outside range, free with no account.
TESDA (the Philippine technical-education authority) is one of the thirteen document templates PassportNinja supports — see the passport photo rules explained page for the full template list. Pick it in the tool above and your photo is cropped and scaled to that exact official size.
Yes — all three are the same China visa/passport size written differently, just 33 mm wide by 48 mm high (or 48×33 with width and height swapped in the description). Pick China in the tool above and PassportNinja outputs exactly this size, 780×1134 pixels at 600 dpi.
It's the head-height measurement every country's rules are built around: the distance from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head. PassportNinja measures this on your finished photo and compares it to your country's official band — see "chin to crown" above for the full explanation.
Yes — convert photo to passport size means exactly this: upload, crop, scale and whiten the background, no cost and no account. Convert to passport size photo is that same step, reworded. Edit photo to passport size does it too. You can also make passport size photo online free files that include both the crop and the white background.
The live preview is that sample — upload your own photo and you'll see a passport size photo example built from it, cropped and measured against the real requirement, rather than a generic sample passport size photo that isn't actually yours.
It depends on the country. Passport size photo size for most of the world (35×45 mm) comes to 3.5×4.5 cm — that's the size of passport photo in cm most people mean. Passport size photo ratio is that identical number, just called by its other name. For the US 2×2 inch format, the size of passport size photo in cm is 5.08×5.08 cm. Pick your country above and the tool measures in whichever unit that country actually uses.
The passport size dimensions in inches, for the US and India specifically, are 2×2. A passport size by inches check also flags anything outside the required band before you submit. Or passport size in inch, same 2×2 answer. Outside those two countries the size of passport in inches varies — most of Europe works in millimetres instead (35×45 mm). A related but smaller 2.5×2.5 cm square shows up on some ID and visa forms, not passports. For anyone who searches it as passport size photo size in inches specifically, the US and India answer is still 2×2 — everyone else works in millimetres instead. Whatever the exact question — what is passport size photo dimensions for your country — pick it above and the tool applies the right figure.
The core rules are consistent worldwide: correct size for your document, head measured chin-to-crown within the official band, plain background, and a recent photo facing the camera — see the size list above for the passport id photo requirements by country. As for a passport photo id maker, that's this tool: pick your document and PassportNinja crops, sizes and whitens the background to match automatically.
Yes. Passport size photo maker online free is one of the names for it. Passport size photo maker free is another. Free passport size photo maker, said the other way round. Passport online photo maker and online passport size photo maker point at that same upload page. Passport size photo maker online is yet one more order for the same words — pick your country above and PassportNinja crops, sizes and whitens it at no cost, no account, no watermark.
Yes to both. An ai passport photo maker free is exactly this: face detection, crop to the official size, plain white background, no payment involved. A passport picture maker free is that same automatic job. Every free passport size photo download here also gets the white background applied automatically. A passport size photo free result also skips the account step — just upload and download.
35×50 mm — a size PassportNinja doesn't have as a fixed template. Passport pic size malaysia is that number. So is passport picture size malaysia. Passport photo size malaysia, malaysia passport size photo and passport size photo malaysia all come to that same 35×50 mm. Size passport photo malaysia and the malaysian passport photo size round it out — same figure throughout. Use PicReviver's free-form crop to set that exact size by hand.
40×60 mm (4×6 cm) is the figure, however it's phrased. Dubai photo visa size and dubai visa photo size both land on that same 40×60 mm. The visa photo size dubai figure is 40×60 mm, checked automatically against that band on upload. Since dubai visa photos size isn't one of the built-in templates here, use PicReviver's free-form crop to set it by hand. The visa dubai photo size also works out to 4×6 cm, if you prefer centimetres over millimetres. Visa photo size for dubai and uae visa photo size round out the list — same requirement throughout. It isn't one of the fixed templates here, so use PicReviver's free-form crop to set it by hand.
In pixels, passport size photo size in pixels and dimensions of passport size photo in pixels depend on which country's document you pick — the passport photo size dimensions in pixels follow from the millimetre size at 600 dpi, so they differ slightly by country. In centimetres, checking the size of passport size picture or passport size photo cm works the same way as photo visa size: pick your document above and PassportNinja measures and crops to the right figure automatically.
Run each photo through separately — pick your country, upload, and PassportNinja resizes any photograph passport size to the official dimensions, one photo at a time. That's also how to make a photo passport size for more than one family member: repeat the upload for each of the passport size photos you need. Every document on this page gets the same crop, white background and free download.
35×45 mm for most of the world — that's the passport photo size in mm, also written passport photo size mm, passport size photo mm, or passport size photo in mm. In full, passport photo size in millimeters or the size of passport size photo in mm works out the same way: pick your country above for the exact figure, since the US and India use 51×51 mm instead. Some people ask for it as passport size photo width and height. Others ask for width and height of passport size photo. Or passport size photo height and width — same two numbers, just said differently.
Same size, different way of writing it: 2x2 inches is 51×51 mm, the standard for American passport applications. Most other countries ask for 35x45 mm instead.
Yes — this page is exactly that: pick your document from the country list, upload a straight-on photo, and PassportNinja crops it to the official size, checks the head height and swaps in a white background, all free with no account and no watermark on any tier.
Just for resizing and compliance — it's not a retouching editor. Upload your photo and the passport photo editor here crops it to the exact official dimensions, measures the head height against the required band and replaces the background with plain white, automatically.
Yes — pick from thirteen built-in templates and this free passport photo maker crops, scales and whitens any straight-on photo to that document's exact official size, with no account and no cost at any tier.
Pick your document from the list above, upload a straight-on photo, and PassportNinja resizes it to the exact official millimetre or inch figure, checks the head height and gives it a plain white background, free.
This one measures your photo's head height against the official band for your document and flags anything outside range, on top of cropping to the correct size and swapping in a white background — all before you download anything.
No — it needs a real uploaded photo. The passport photo generator label here just describes the automatic pipeline: face detection, crop to the correct size, head-height check and a white background, not a synthetic image.
It scales your photo until the measured chin-to-crown distance lands inside your document's required band, then crops around the same horizontal centre as your face — more consistent than eyeballing a crop manually.
Yes — this passport photo website carries thirteen official size templates in one place, so switching countries just means picking a different option from the same list rather than finding a different site.
Free for all thirteen — no paid tier that gates any specific country's template; the pass only raises the batch size and how long results are kept on the server.
Yes — pick your document, upload a straight-on photo, and download the cropped, sized, white-background result immediately, with no account or sign-up required at any point.
