FAQ

The size of the British passport photo is 35 x 45 mm (3.5 x 4.5 cm). If you wish to upload a photo to a digital application, the online passport application photo should measure 900 x 1200 pixels.

You can use a variety of tools and applications, but the easiest way is to have it done automatically. Our online digital photo tool or professional mobile app will generate a passport size photo with a uniform background of the right colour in seconds.

Consider wearing a colour other than black. Black colour on a strongly white background will stand out too much, which may distort the natural contrast of the photo.

You should ask a friend or family member to take the photo from approximately 3 feet away. You need to ensure you are using a neutral background, white or off-white. You should also follow all of the other passport photo rules.
