Passport Photo Maker — Official Sizes, 300 DPI

About the Passport Photo Maker

This crops and sizes a photo to the exact pixel dimensions used for official passport and ID photos, so you can print your own instead of paying a booth or studio. Pick your country's format, fit your photo to it, choose a background, and download a correctly-sized image. Because everything happens on your device, your photo — a sensitive personal document — never gets uploaded to anyone's server.

How it works

You choose a country preset and the tool sets the canvas to the right pixel size at 300 DPI (print resolution). Supported presets include:

US — 2 × 2 in (600 × 600px)
UK / EU / India / Australia — 35 × 45 mm (413 × 531px)
Canada — 50 × 70 mm (590 × 826px)

You position your photo with cover (fill the frame, cropping overflow) or contain (fit the whole photo, padding with a background colour you choose). It also offers a printable sheet so you can print several copies on one 4×6 or A4 page.

Assumptions and behaviour

Output is at the correct pixel dimensions for 300 DPI printing, the standard print resolution for ID photos.
Cover crops to fill the exact frame; contain fits the whole image with a chosen background (useful for a plain white backdrop).
Presets cover the common international sizes; the 35 × 45 mm size is shared by the UK, EU, India, Australia and many others.
A printable multi-photo sheet is available to save on printing.

Limitations

It sizes and crops; it doesn't check official compliance. Passport authorities have strict rules — head size and position within the frame, a neutral expression, eyes open, no glasses glare, a plain light background, even lighting. This tool gives you the right dimensions, but you must ensure the photo itself meets your country's requirements, or it may be rejected.
It doesn't remove or replace the background automatically; the contain mode adds a flat colour behind a fitted photo, but it can't cut you out of a busy background.
Print quality depends on your printer and paper; a home printout may not match a professional photo print.
Requirements change and vary by country — always check the official current guidance before relying on a printed photo.

Privacy

Everything runs entirely in your browser with the Canvas API. Your photo — a sensitive personal document — is never uploaded or stored; it stays on your device.

Frequently asked questions

Is this passport photo maker free?

Yes — free, no sign-up, no limits, runs in your browser.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. It's processed entirely on your device with the Canvas API and never uploaded — important for a sensitive ID photo.

Which sizes does it support?

US 2×2 in (600×600), the 35×45 mm size used by the UK, EU, India and Australia (413×531), and Canada 50×70 mm (590×826), all at 300 DPI.

Will my photo definitely be accepted?

It gives you the correct dimensions, but it doesn't verify compliance. You must ensure the photo meets your country's rules — head size and position, neutral expression, plain background, even lighting — or it may be rejected.

Can it change the background to plain white?

The 'contain' mode places your photo on a flat background colour, but it can't cut you out of a busy background — start with a photo taken against a plain wall.

Can I print several on one sheet?

Yes. There's a printable sheet option so you can fit multiple copies on a 4×6 or A4 page.

Why does it use 300 DPI?

300 DPI is the standard print resolution for ID photos, so the pixel dimensions produce a correctly-sized print.
