- Face the camera, eyes open, mouth closed, neutral expression.
- Even lighting, no shadows on your face. No glasses.
- Include your whole head and shoulders with some space around.
- Stand in front of a plain, light-coloured wall if you can. PassPic replaces the background with the colour your format needs, but some offices (US, India) don't accept edited photos, so a plain background in the original photo keeps changes to a minimum.

Frequently asked questions
Is PassPic really free?
Yes. There are no ads, no watermark, no account and no limits on how many photos you make.
Which photo sizes can I make?
US passport and visa photos and India visa photos (2×2 inch), China visa photos (33×48 mm), Schengen and ICAO photos, UK passport photos and Indian passport photos (35×45 mm).
Do you keep my photo?
Photos you upload are used only to make your picture and are deleted automatically after 1 hour. See the privacy policy for details.
Can I get my passport photo taken online?
You take the photo yourself, or ask someone to, and PassPic turns it into a passport or visa photo online: it crops it to the official size, sizes your head and sets the background. You then print the 4×6 sheet at a photo lab or upload the digital file to an online application.
How can I make a 2×2 passport photo online for free?
Choose “US passport / India visa 2×2 in” above, upload a photo and select Make my photo. PassPic gives you a 2×2 inch photo at 600 × 600 pixels and a 4×6 sheet with six copies. There is no charge, watermark or sign-up.
Can I take a passport picture with my phone?
Yes. Use the back camera rather than a selfie, in even light in front of a plain, light wall, with your face straight on and your whole head and shoulders in view. Upload it here and PassPic crops it to the right size. It does not retouch your face.
What files do I get?
A JPEG photo at the official size and 300 dpi, a 4×6 inch print sheet with several copies, and for formats with an online upload size (China visa 420 × 560, Indian passport 630 × 810) a separate digital file.
How do I print my passport photos?
Download the 4×6 sheet and print it as a regular 4×6 photo at any photo lab or at home, at 100% or “fit”, not “fill”. Then cut along the outlines. A 4×6 print at a photo lab is often under a dollar.
Will my photo be accepted?
PassPic sizes the head and sets the background to match each format and shows you the measurements. Some agencies, including the US State Department, say not to alter photos with software or apps, so a photo taken against a plain wall is the safest. Requirements can change and differ between offices, so always check the official rules before you submit.
