Turn Your Passport Size Photo Background White. Instantly
Passport photos need a white or off-white background. Otherwise, your application will get rejected. But—what if you don’t have the right spot in your home? Or you’re just tired of using clunky background removers that make you sign up, sit through ads, or blur hair? That's when our AI-powered tool comes into play. Our intelligent algorithms can automatically erase any background for a passport-size photo, regardless of complexity, and replace it with a white one in under 3 seconds. Zero technical skills required.
Crop Your Photo to Passport Size So It Fits Like a Glove
After you’ve taken a self-shot, upload your photo, and let us take care of the rest. Our high-precision passport resize tool will crop it to a square 2 x 2 (51mm x 51mm) image, analyse your facial biometrics, and leave just enough space above the head and on each side. We'll then ensure your face is centred in the frame for guaranteed compliance with the official composition requirements. No manual work is needed.
Ensure Your Passport Photo Is Pixel Perfect
If you have a printed photo you'd like to turn digital, it must be scanned at a resolution of 300 DPI to get the green light from the Ministry of External Affairs. But don't worry, we can help. Simply upload your photo, and we'll run a series of checks to see if your image meets the dots per inch condition. Easier done than said.
Download a Printable Passport Photo Template
After you've taken a photograph you're happy with, we'll generate a printable 4 x 6 template with 2 images of you. You can print it at home or elsewhere, cut out your photos, and submit them with your application. We can also ship the printouts to your doorstep if you want to avoid crowds.
Photo requirements are based on: passportindia.gov.in

About the document
The Indian passport enables the holder to fly abroad and functions as evidence of Indian citizenship. Passport seva, the passport service which is in charge of issuing passports on demand to the citizens, functions as the central passport organization. In order to apply for an indian passport you need to fulfill some requests such as providing a biometric photo, personal information and more. Our editing application, PhotoAid, can help you get a digital passport photo. Take a photo, upload it and we will adjust the size and erase the background to make the photo acceptable for your passport.

What can get my passport photo rejected?
+
-
There are a few things that can get your passport photo rejected. Some common reasons include shadows, poor colour balance, and improper facial expression.
What’s the best hairstyle for a passport photo?
+

Ensure your hair isn’t covering your eyes or brows and your facial features are visible. If you have long hair, brush it back behind your shoulders to make the attire seeable. In the case of head coverings, they aren't allowed except for religious reasons. Still, the facial features—from the bottom of the chin to the top of the forehead and both edges of the face—must be clearly displayed.

Is there a dress code for passport photos?

You cannot wear sunglasses or tinted glasses in a passport photo. Yet, regular eyeglasses are allowed if you wear them regularly—just be careful to avoid lens glare that might obscure your eyes. When it comes to makeup, it’s not forbidden as long as you opt for neutral colours. If you’re a man, it’s also OK to have a beard in a passport photo. Finally, in terms of attire, it’s best to put on clothes you usually wear. Avoid uniforms or clothing that resembles a uniform or camouflage.

Once taken, tap into the power of our passport-size photo maker (or the mobile app) and let our intelligent AI algorithms fix the background, crop, and sharpen your photo, so it gets accepted by the authorities.
