Official requirements

  • The photo must be exactly 35×45 mm (at 300 DPI).
  • The head — chin to the top of the hair — must take up 70–80% of the photo height.
  • Leave 6.0–10.0% of empty space above the head.
  • Background: White or light-coloured.

Common reasons these photos get rejected

  • The head is too large or too small relative to the frame.
  • The background colour does not match the requirement, or shadows/patterns are visible.
  • The photo is a scan or a photo of a printed photo rather than an original shot.

Photo requirements

  • Face the camera straight on; keep your head level
  • Keep your eyebrows and ears visible — don't let hair cover them
  • No sunglasses, tinted lenses or hats; glasses are best removed
  • Use a plain, light background if possible
  • Even lighting — avoid harsh shadows and flash glare
  • Upload the original photo; don't photograph a printed photo
