Tips for Preparing a 35×45 mm Visa Photo
- Head and shoulder framing: Position your head centered in the frame so your face occupies roughly 70%–80% of the vertical height (about 32–36 mm from chin to crown).
- Plain light background: Embassies typically require a plain white or light off-white background with even front lighting and no harsh shadows.
- Need a 2×2 inch square visa photo instead? For US DS-160 visa applications or India tourist e-Visas that specify a 2 × 2 inch square, use our US Passport & 2×2 Inch Visa Resizer.
- Hit strict portal KB limits: If your online visa portal requires a file under 50 KB or 100 KB, compress your downloaded visa photo using our Compress Image to 50KB or Compress Image to 100KB tools.
