Passport Photo Size

Choose 2×2in (square) or 35×45mm (ICAO), then crop your photo to size with a head-position guide — free and processed entirely in your browser.

About the Passport Photo Size Cropper

Passport and visa photos almost always follow one of two international standards: a 2×2 inch square (the US style) or 35×45mm (the ICAO standard used by most of the rest of the world). Getting the wrong one — or the wrong pixel dimensions within it — can mean a rejected application.

This tool lets you choose between the two standard sizes and crops to it exactly, with a positioning guide. This is a dimensions-and-positioning tool, not an automatic compliance checker. What it guarantees is the exact pixel dimensions for the size you select, done for free, entirely in your browser. For full country-specific detail, see our dedicated US, UK, India, and Schengen pages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which sizes does this cover?

Two standard categories that cover most of the world: 2×2 inch / square (the US style) and 35×45mm (the ICAO standard used by most countries outside the US, including the UK, India, and the Schengen zone). For exact country-specific detail, see our dedicated US, UK, India, and Schengen pages.

Does this guarantee my photo will be accepted?

No — it guarantees exact dimensions for your selected size and a positioning guide, but not background, lighting, or expression, which your destination's passport authority also requires.

My country isn't listed — what should I do?

Check your destination country's official passport or visa photo requirement, then pick whichever size matches — 2×2in/square, or 35×45mm — since most countries worldwide use one of these two standards. For an unusual size, use our general Crop Image tool with a custom pixel dimension instead.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. Cropping happens entirely in your browser.
