Frequently asked questions
Which countries does it support?+
Any country. Choose 35×45 mm for the UK, Ireland, the EU and Schengen area, Australia, India and most others; 2×2 in for the USA; 50×70 mm for Canada; or enter a custom size in millimetres.
Can I use it for the UK online passport application?+
Yes. Choose “UK online application (digital photo)” to get a high-resolution photo with the head sized correctly. You'll still need a plain, light background and even lighting, as GOV.UK checks these.
Does it remove or change the background?+
No. We crop and size your photo but keep your real background, so take the photo in front of a plain, light-coloured wall.
How do I print passport photos?+
Choose the 4×6 in sheet and print it at any photo shop or pharmacy as a standard 6×4 print, then cut along the lines. Or use the A4 sheet at home.
Will my photo be accepted?+
We follow the official size and head-position rules, but the authority also checks lighting, expression and background. Always check the latest requirements for your application.
Are my files safe?+
Yes. Files are sent over an encrypted connection, processed automatically, and permanently deleted after 1 hour (24 hours for account holders so you can re-download). Nobody looks at your files.
