# Passport Photo Maker > Make passport and visa photos free with country presets, auto face crop, white background and exact size and KB targets. 100% private — runs in your browser. - URL: https://farvixo.com/tools/government/passport-photo-maker - Category: Government Tools (https://farvixo.com/tools/government) - Price: Free - Last reviewed: 7 August 2026 - Publisher: Farvixo Technologies ## 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. ## Specifications | Property | Value | | --- | --- | | Tool | Passport Photo Maker — Government Tools | | Purpose | Create compliant passport photos with country presets | | Input | A single file (JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP) | | Output | A compliant image or PDF matching the selected portal specification | | Processing | In your browser — files are never uploaded to a server | | Price | Free, unlimited, no account required | | Limitations | Bounded by your device's memory and CPU rather than a server quota; very large files may be slow on older hardware | ## How to use Passport Photo Maker 1. **Upload your photo or document** — Add your file to Passport Photo Maker. It is processed entirely in your browser — important for identity documents, which never reach a server here. 2. **Pick the official specification** — 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. 3. **Download the compliant file** — Save a file that already matches the upload specification, ready to submit without rejection for the wrong size or format. ## Use cases - 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 - Fixing a submission that was already rejected for a specification mismatch ## Tips - 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 - **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. ## FAQ ### 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. ## Related tools - [PAN Card Photo Resizer](https://farvixo.com/tools/government/pan-card-photo-resizer): AI-powered NSDL & UTI photo, signature & document resizer with 12-point compliance check - [Passport Signature Resizer](https://farvixo.com/tools/government/passport-signature-resizer): Resize signature to passport upload specifications - [Aadhaar Photo Resizer](https://farvixo.com/tools/government/aadhaar-photo-resizer): Resize photo to UIDAI Aadhaar specifications - [Voter ID Photo Resizer](https://farvixo.com/tools/government/voter-id-photo-resizer): Resize photo to Voter ID (EPIC) specifications - [Driving Licence Photo Resizer](https://farvixo.com/tools/government/driving-licence-photo-resizer): Resize photo & signature for DL (Sarathi) uploads - [Exam Photo & Signature Resizer](https://farvixo.com/tools/government/exam-photo-signature-resizer): SSC, UPSC, IBPS, NEET compliant photo & signature --- > Machine-readable index: [llms.txt](https://farvixo.com/llms.txt) · full corpus: [llms-full.txt](https://farvixo.com/llms-full.txt) · agent skill: [skill.md](https://farvixo.com/skill.md).
