A front-facing head-and-shoulders photo against a plain, evenly lit background

Quick Tool Overview

The Passport Photo Maker crops an ID photo to the exact millimetres your country requires and can tile it onto a 4x6 inch sheet for printing. Country presets load the correct dimensions, and a head-height guide shows the proportion the specification asks for, so you can see whether the crop is inside tolerance instead of guessing.

About the Passport Photo Maker

Passport photographs are a specification, not an art form: a fixed physical size, a head that fills a set proportion of the frame, and a plain background. Get any of those wrong and the application comes back.

Pick the country and the correct dimensions load automatically — 35 by 45 mm for the UK, EU and India, 2 by 2 inches for the United States, 50 by 70 mm for Canada, and so on. A head-height guide overlay shows the proportion the specification asks for, so you can see whether the crop sits inside the tolerance rather than guessing. Once the crop is right, the sheet layout tiles it across a standard 4 by 6 inch print at 300 DPI, which any photo lab or home printer will produce for the price of one print.

Key features of the Passport Photo Maker

Country presets

35x45 mm for the UK, EU, Australia and India; 2x2 inches for the US; 50x70 mm for Canada — the right numbers load automatically.

Head-height guide

An overlay marks the band the crown and chin must fall between, which is the requirement most rejected photos miss.

Print sheet layout

Tiles the finished photo across a standard 4x6 inch sheet at 300 DPI with cut guides, so one print gives you six or eight copies.

Correct print density

Output is generated at the DPI the specification assumes, so the printed millimetres come out right.

Private by construction

An identity document photo is exactly the kind of file you should not upload, and here it never is.
