Passport Photo Size Requirements Explained

Passport photo uploads fail more often than people expect.

Sometimes the image is:

too large
wrongly cropped
unsupported
blurry
not in JPG format

Even a small mistake can cause upload rejection.

That’s why resizing passport photos properly matters.

Common Passport Photo Requirements

Most portals expect:

white background
clear face visibility
correct dimensions
proper aspect ratio
JPG or JPEG format

Large mobile photos often need resizing before upload.

Common Reasons for Rejection
incorrect background
shadows on face
oversized image
poor crop
unsupported file type
