How to use the Passport & ID Photo Maker
- Pick your country or document.
- Choose a photo taken against a plain light wall, then drag and zoom until your head fits the guides.
- Download the single 300 DPI photo for online forms, or a print sheet to print at 100% scale.
What does this tool do?
Passport rules specify both the photo size and how large your head must appear — for example 25–35 mm chin-to-crown on a US 2×2 inch photo. The dashed ovals show the allowed range for the chosen country.
A 4×6 inch sheet prints at any photo kiosk for a fraction of the cost of a studio photo. Your images are processed on your own device and never uploaded.
Why use it?
- 10 country presets.
- Head-size guides.
- 4×6 in and A4 print sheets.
Accuracy and limits
- Rules change and agencies may reject photos for lighting, shadows, glasses or expression. Check your government's current requirements before applying.
