- Take a front-facing photo against a plain, light background.
- Upload it. The 35×45 mm size is already selected; switch to your specific country if it's in the list.

Who uses 35×45 mm photos?
The 35×45 mm format is used for passports and visas in the United Kingdom, the Schengen area and EU, the Philippines, India (passport), Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Japan, Nigeria, Pakistan and many more countries. It's often called "passport size photo".
At 300 DPI, 35×45 mm equals 413×531 pixels, which is what this tool exports. For printing, the 4×6 inch sheet holds 8 photos with thin cut lines.
Head size and position
Most 35×45 mm standards require the face (chin to crown) to be about 32–36 mm tall, roughly 70–80% of the photo height, centred, with a little space above the head. The UK allows 29–34 mm. Choosing your country from the list sizes the oval guide to match.
