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. Take it against a plain cream or light grey wall with even lighting, as GOV.UK checks these.
Can it change the background to white or grey?+
Yes, if you need to. Choose white, light grey or cream and the background is replaced automatically. Some authorities, including GOV.UK and the US State Department, ask for photos that haven't been edited, so the safest choice is a photo taken against a real plain wall, with “Keep” selected.
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.
