Passport Photo Maker: Make a Passport Size Photo in Your Browser

Open this page, choose your country and document, drop a portrait into the tool, and let the face detector align the crop. Adjust if needed, remove the background if it is not plain, then download the photo or a print sheet. It is free, needs no account and adds no watermark.

No. Face detection, cropping and background removal all run in your browser. Your photo never leaves your device. You can verify this in your browser Network tab while using the tool.

The tool covers major passport and visa documents including the US, UK, India, Pakistan, Canada, Australia and Schengen. Each document has its own size, head-height rule and background colour. If your document is not listed, you can still crop manually to a custom size.

Most countries use 35 x 45 mm, including the UK, EU, Australia, India (for some documents) and Pakistan. The United States and a few others use 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm). The tool loads the correct size for the document you pick.

The tool follows published specs, but it cannot guarantee acceptance. Offices can apply extra rules, and requirements change. Always check the official source for your country and document before you submit. Keep the original photo so you can re-crop if needed.

The tool first tries the browser FaceDetector API where available, then falls back to a small MediaPipe model. It finds the face and estimates the head height, then computes the crop so the head fills the allowed range for your document. If detection fails, you can crop manually.

Yes, optionally. A MediaPipe selfie segmentation model runs locally and replaces the background with the colour your document requires. Results vary by photo, especially with curly hair or a busy background. You can also skip background removal if your photo already has a plain background.

You can upload any photo, including a baby photo, and crop it to size. Babies often need a plain background and a neutral expression, which the tool can help with. Check your country's specific rules for children before submitting.

Yes. Download the print sheet, which places several copies of the photo on an A4 page with crop marks, then print at 100% or "Actual size". Do not use fit-to-page, which would change the dimensions. Cut along the marks.

We recommend photos under 15 MB for reliable browser performance. Very large photos may be slow to process on phones, so resize or compress first if needed.

Yes. It works in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android. The first visit downloads small face and segmentation models, and after that the tool runs quickly from cache.

No. There is no server storage and no account. The photo and the result exist only in your browser tab until you close it or clear the tool.

Yes. After background removal, you can set the background to white, light grey or another colour your document requires. The tool shows the recommended colour for the selected document.

Use a clear, front-facing photo with the whole head and shoulders visible, in good light. If detection still fails, switch to manual crop and adjust the crop box yourself.

No. It crops the photo to the required aspect ratio. If the result looks stretched, the detected face box may be off. Try a clearer photo or adjust the crop manually.

Many visa photos use the same sizes as passports, and the tool includes Schengen and other visa documents. Check the visa application instructions for your destination, because some visas have extra rules.

Print at 100% or "Actual size". If the printer is set to "Fit to page" or "Shrink to fit", the photo will be scaled and the dimensions will be wrong.

Current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on desktop and mobile. Keep your browser updated so the face detection and segmentation APIs work correctly.

Yes, because the photo is processed locally and never uploaded. For extra caution, use a private browsing window so cached data is cleared when you close the tab.

You can crop to a custom size for many ID cards. The tool focuses on passport and visa documents, but manual crop lets you set other dimensions. Check the ID issuer's rules for exact size and background.

35 x 45 mm is the size used by most countries, including the UK, EU, Australia and Pakistan. 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) is the US size. The tool picks the right one when you select the document.

Once the page has loaded and the models are cached, the photo processing runs locally. The first visit needs internet to load the tool and the models.

Yes, you can download the photo as a JPEG. Some digital applications have extra rules for file size, pixel dimensions and background, so check the specific requirements before uploading.

Most countries require the head (chin to crown) to fill a specific percentage of the photo, for example 50 to 69% for the US. The tool uses the detected face to estimate the head height and compute the crop, which is why an accurate face detection matters.

The tool lets you adjust the crop, change the background colour and re-crop. For other edits such as brightness or red-eye, use an image editor first, then bring the photo back to this tool.

You can make as many photos as you like. Each photo is processed one at a time, because browser memory is the practical limit and a passport photo tool works on one photo per document.

The tool shows the target size, head-height range and background colour for the selected document, alongside the current crop. Use that summary to check the result before you download.

The tool does not automatically remove glasses. Many countries discourage or ban glasses in passport photos. Take the photo without glasses where possible, then crop it here.

It works well for photos with a reasonably distinct subject and a simple background. Curly hair, a busy background or low light can leave a halo. You can adjust the background colour or use a photo with a plain background for the best result.
