Passport and visa photo sizes.

Forty documents, at the size consulates actually print. Every row opens the frame, the head-height range and the official rule behind it.

Sizes are summarised from each authority’s published guidance. Always check the linked source before you submit.

How to read this table

Two numbers decide whether a photo is accepted: the print size of the frame, and the height of the head inside it. The first is fixed by the document. The second is where most photos fail, because it is measured on the person, chin to crown, not on the paper.

The pixel column is the same frame at 300 dots per inch, which is what photo labs assume. When a form asks for a minimum upload size, that number is usually this column or slightly below it.
