Easy and quick

Never tried this before but I found it very easy to upload a picture for a passport photo. Once I paid the fee the photo was checked, amended and approved. I chose to pay for the online version so photos saved in my phone. Very convenient as I didn't have to visit a store.

UK Passport Photo Guidelines: Dos and Don’ts

Whether you take your passport photo at home or choose a local photo booth, knowing His Majesty’s Passport Office photo requirements is key. After all, any picture that breaks a guideline will be rejected and delay your application.

Now, follow these tips to get the photo right:

✔️ Wear makeup, but go for a natural look.

✔️ Opt for everyday clothes in darker colours.

✔️ Look straight into the camera, maintaining a neutral facial expression with your eyes open and mouth closed.

❌ Don’t wear glasses. If you can’t remove them, ensure no glare or shadows on your face.

❌ Don’t wear any headgear unless for religious or medical reasons.
