What this tool does
This tool turns an ordinary photo into passport or ID-size photos. You choose a photo size in millimetres (or enter a custom size), a print resolution, and the tool centre-crops your photo to the exact proportions.
You get a single photo at print quality, plus an optional print sheet that repeats the photo across A4 or 4×6-inch paper so a photo lab can print and cut it.
How to use it
- Choose a clear, front-facing photo taken against a plain background.
- Pick the photo size your application requires (e.g. 35 × 45 mm) or enter a custom size in millimetres.
- Keep 300 DPI unless the application specifically asks for something else.
- Press “Create photo” to process.
- Download the single photo, or the print sheet for printing several copies at once.
- Before submitting, measure the printed photo or verify it in a print preview against the official requirement.
Supported formats
- Input: JPG / JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF (first frame), BMP
- Output: PNG at 200/300/600 DPI
- Print sheets: A4 or 4 × 6 in
Limitations
- Official photo requirements (size, background colour, head position, recency) differ between countries and authorities and change over time. This tool is not affiliated with any government body and cannot validate your photo — always confirm the exact requirement with the organisation you are applying to.
- The crop is centred automatically; it cannot reposition the subject or replace the background colour.
- A printed photo's real dimensions depend on your printer's settings — print at actual size (100% scale, no “fit to page”).
Frequently asked questions
What size are passport photos in India?
It depends entirely on the application: Indian passport applications commonly use 35 mm × 45 mm, some visa applications want 2 × 2 inches (51 × 51 mm), and other forms may want different sizes. Always check the specific requirement — that is why the tool lets you pick or define the size.
Can you change my photo's background colour?
No. Reliable background replacement needs proper segmentation and can easily produce rejected photos, so this tool does not attempt it. Take your photo against a plain, evenly lit background instead.
Why does my printed photo come out the wrong size?
Your printer probably scaled the image to fit the page. Print at “actual size” (100% scale) and check the print preview. The print sheet includes cut guides and margins to help with this.
