Manual ICAO photo checklist

The tool guarantees output dimensions and file format. These appearance checks still need a human eye.

The photo is recent and taken from roughly 1.5 metres away.

Hair does not cover the eyes, and both eyes are open and visible.

The face is straight toward the camera and the head is not tilted.

The background is plain white without shadows or patterns.

Skin tone looks natural, with balanced brightness and contrast.

Glasses are removed to avoid reflections; permitted religious head coverings do not hide facial edges.

Indian passport photo questions

What is the current Indian passport digital photo size?

Passport Seva’s current ICAO guidance specifies a colour photograph exactly 630 pixels wide by 810 pixels high. It also says the face should occupy 80–85% of the photograph.

Is an Indian passport photo 2×2 inches or 35×45 mm?

The current Passport Seva digital requirement is 630×810 pixels, which has the same 7:9 shape as 35×45 mm. Older or service-specific VFS documents may show different physical sizes. Check the current checklist for your exact application and jurisdiction before printing.

Can I print a 35×45 mm photo at CVS or Walgreens?

Yes. Download the 4×6 sheet from this page and order it as one standard 4×6 photo without cropping, fit-to-page, or border expansion. Each of the six photos will print at 35×45 mm; cut on the guide marks.

Does Puppetry upload or store my passport photo?

No. Cropping, resizing, compression, and print-sheet generation happen locally in your browser. The photo is never uploaded to Puppetry or a third party.

Does this tool guarantee that VFS will accept my photo?

No online tool can guarantee acceptance. This tool guarantees the exported file dimensions and format. You must still check lighting, expression, pose, background, and the latest requirements for your exact service and consular jurisdiction.

See something outdated?

Passport requirements change. Tell us what needs correcting and paste the official source link when possible.
