How do I make this photo?

  1. Keep the preselected India Passport preset.
  2. Choose a recent, clear portrait with one front-facing subject.
  3. Review the automatic face occupies 80–85% of photo framing and keep the background plain white.
  4. Use only edits permitted by the issuing authority, then export the 630 × 810px JPEG.

What should I check before submission?

  • Confirm the portrait represents the applicant’s current appearance.
  • Check both eyes are visible and avoid blur, glare, hard shadows or covered facial features.
  • Compare the exported crop with the authority source; correct dimensions alone do not guarantee acceptance.
  • Use background or quality tools only when the authority permits them and the likeness remains natural.

What file will Photo Pass create?

The digital download is a JPEG cropped to 630 × 810 pixels. You can also prepare a 300 DPI A4, A5 or 6 × 4 inch print sheet using the physical 35 × 45 mm size. Review printer scaling and disable “fit to page” when exact physical dimensions are required.

Who reviewed this requirement?

The Photo Pass editorial team checked the preset against the linked issuing-authority material on 15 July 2026. The review covers dimensions, background, head placement, format, file-size limits and stated editing restrictions. Requirements can change, so the authority source remains the final reference.

Read the verification methodology or report an inaccurate requirement.

Why might a correctly sized photo be rejected?

Common causes include an old or altered portrait, an incorrect expression, closed or obscured eyes, uneven lighting, a visible shadow, low resolution, an unapproved background or a crop that does not match the required head position. Application channels can also impose a different file limit or capture process.

Country and application context

What is specific to this passport?

India’s passport guidance uses an ICAO-style frontal portrait with a relatively large face area. Applicants should check whether the current application or service centre requests a digital upload, printed copies or on-site capture before relying on a prepared file.

A passport photo becomes part of a long-lived identity document. Use a recent portrait, preserve a natural likeness and check rules for expression, glasses, head coverings and children. For printed applications, verify paper finish, quantity and any photographer certification separately from the digital crop.
