Passport Photo Maker
Create compliant passport photos with country presets
What is Passport Photo Maker?
Passport Photo Maker is a free Farvixo tool that lets you create compliant passport photos with country presets. It applies the issuing authority's published rules for pixel dimensions, file size, DPI and background, so the file is accepted the first time. Identity documents are processed entirely in your browser and are never uploaded anywhere.
How to use Passport Photo Maker
Add your file to Passport Photo Maker. It is processed entirely in your browser — important for identity documents, which never reach a server here.
Choose the form or authority you are applying to. Passport Photo Maker applies that body's exact rules for dimensions, file size, background and DPI, so you are not guessing at the requirements.
Save a file that already matches the upload specification, ready to submit without rejection for the wrong size or format.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which countries are supported?
Presets cover common passport and visa specs including India (35×45mm), US (2×2in), Schengen and more, each with the correct size and background rules.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Cropping, background removal and compression run entirely in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device.
Can it meet a specific KB file-size limit?
Yes. The tool can compress to a target file size (e.g. under 200KB) while keeping the face clear for portal uploads.
Does it fix the background?
Yes. It removes and replaces the background with the required plain white (or blue) so your photo meets biometric rules.
Is it free?
Yes — make and download passport photos free, with no watermark and no signup.
What you can use Passport Photo Maker for
- Applying online where the portal rejects photos for being the wrong size or file weight
- Preparing photo and signature files for an exam registration before the deadline
- Anyone who does not want an identity document passing through a third-party server

Tips for better results
- Photograph against a plain light background in even daylight — no flash shadow behind the head.
- Confirm the specification against the portal you are actually applying on; requirements differ between authorities and occasionally change.
- Keep the compliant output file. Most applications ask for the same photo again at a later stage.
Common problems and how to fix them
The portal rejected the file for size
Portals enforce both pixel dimensions and a KB range. Select the exact portal preset rather than a generic resize, so both limits are met at once.
The face is cropped wrongly
Official specs fix the proportion of the frame the head must occupy. Re-upload a photo taken further back so there is room to crop correctly.
The background is not accepted
Shadows and off-white walls fail an automated background check. Re-shoot against a plain white or light-grey surface with even lighting.
