What is the passport photo size in pixels?

The ICAO standard used by most countries is 35 × 45 mm. Printed at 300 dpi that is 413 × 531 pixels, which is what this page sets. The US passport photo is the exception: it is 2 × 2 inches, or 600 × 600 pixels at 300 dpi.

How do I get exactly 413 × 531 without stretching my face?

Crop first, then resize. Open the crop editor, set a custom ratio of 35 : 45, position your head inside it, and apply — the resize then lands on the exact pixel size with no distortion. Leaving the aspect lock on without cropping fits the photo inside 413 × 531 instead, which keeps the proportions but will not fill the frame.

The portal also has a file size limit — can I do both?

Yes. Turn on 'Maximum file size' as well and pick your limit; the dimensions and the size cap are applied together in a single pass, so you do not have to compress and resize in two different tools.

My photo is a HEIC file from an iPhone — will that work?

Yes. HEIC and HEIF photos are converted automatically when you drop them in, before anything else is applied, and you can output JPG, PNG or WebP.

Where 413 × 531 comes from

The most common passport photo size in the world is 35 × 45 mm, used for the UK, the EU, Australia and many other countries. At 300 DPI, which is the usual print resolution, 35 mm is about 413 pixels and 45 mm is about 531 pixels. So “passport photo size in pixels” usually means 413 × 531. A US passport photo is different: it is 2 × 2 inches, which is 600 × 600 pixels at 300 DPI.

Photo size	At 300 DPI	Typical use
35 × 45 mm	413 × 531 px	UK, EU, Australia and many others
2 × 2 inches (51 × 51 mm)	600 × 600 px	United States
40 × 50 mm	472 × 591 px	Some countries and applications

These are the common sizes. Each country and each application sets its own rules, including the background colour and the proportion of the frame the face must fill. Always check the official instructions for the application you are making.

Resizing without distorting your face

Drop your photo on this page. The 413 × 531 size is already selected.
Crop so that your head is centred and fills the right amount of the frame. Do not stretch the picture to fit; it changes how your face looks and can get the photo rejected.
Download the result. If the portal also has a file-size limit, add it in the same pass.

Digital uploads versus printed photos

Pixels matter when you upload a photo; millimetres matter when you print one. Many online applications ask for a size in pixels and a maximum file size, such as 600 × 600 pixels and under 240 KB for a US visa photo. Print shops want the physical size and a resolution of at least 300 DPI. The guide on pixels, DPI and resolution explains how they fit together, and the one on passport and visa photos for digital upload goes through the requirements.
