United Arab Emirates Passport requirements at a glance
Use these values for the selected authority, then compare the final portrait with the linked official instructions before submission.
Exported as a fresh JPEG file.

Face forward with eyes visible and a natural expression.
How do I make this photo?
- Keep the preselected United Arab Emirates Passport preset.
- Choose a recent, clear portrait with one front-facing subject.
- Review the automatic face straight; features and eyes clear framing and keep the background plain white.
- Use only edits permitted by the issuing authority, then export the 700 × 900px 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 700 × 900 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.
What is specific to this passport?
UAE ICP services use ICAO-based personal-photo standards and can combine the photo step with identity, residence or biometric procedures. The application channel may request a recent upload or capture the portrait during an appointment, so verify the current service workflow.
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.
