How to use the Passport Photo Maker

This tool crops a photo to an official passport or visa size, exports it at exact print pixels and lays out a sheet of copies for photo paper. You drag and zoom the photo inside a frame with a head guide, and it renders the result at 300 or 600 DPI. It handles size and layout only; it does not change the background, the lighting or the expression.

Step by step

  1. Add your photo

    Drop a photo on the card that says Drop a photo here, or click the card to choose a file. JPG, PNG and WebP work. The editor opens with the photo filling the frame.

  2. Choose the photo size

    Pick a preset under Photo size: US 2 × 2 in, EU / India / UK 35 × 45 mm (the default), China 33 × 48 mm or Canada 50 × 70 mm. For anything else choose Custom, enter Width and Height, and pick mm or inches. Custom sides are kept between 10 and 150 mm.

  3. Pick a resolution

    Leave Resolution on 300 DPI (standard print) for most uses, or choose 600 DPI (high-res) for a sharp original. The Photo output line shows the result in pixels.

  4. Position the head

    Drag the photo to move it, and use the Zoom slider (100% to 400%) or your mouse wheel to enlarge it. With Show head-position guide ticked, set the top of the head on the crown line and the chin on the chin line, inside the oval. Re-center starts the framing over.

  5. Download one photo

    Choose PNG or JPG under Download format, then press Download photo. The file is named after your original plus its pixel size.

  6. Make a print sheet

    In Print sheet, choose 4 × 6 in or A4. Copies fills in the most that fit; lower it if you want fewer. Untick Show cut lines for a clean sheet, then press Download print sheet. The sheet is saved in the format chosen under Download format.

  7. Swap the photo

    Press Replace to go back to the drop card and load a different photo. Your size and resolution choices stay as they were.

Reading the result

  • Photo output shows pixels, DPI and millimeters. Pixels are millimeters ÷ 25.4 × DPI, so 35 × 45 mm is 413 × 531 px at 300 DPI and 827 × 1063 px at 600 DPI.
  • On the sheet, photos sit 2 mm apart inside a 4 mm margin, and the paper is turned sideways when that fits more. Six 35 × 45 mm photos fit on 4 × 6 in and 30 on A4. A US 2 × 2 in photo fits twice on 4 × 6 in and 15 times on A4.
  • The line under the sheet preview reads like 4×6 in · 6 of 6 copies · 300 DPI on download. If a custom size is larger than the paper, it tells you to pick a bigger paper or a smaller size.

Tips and common mistakes

  • Check your authority's current rules before you print. The crown and chin lines sit at fixed points in the frame as a framing aid; they do not measure head size.
  • Start from a photo taken against a plain white or off white wall. The tool will not remove or recolor a busy background.
  • Print the 4 × 6 in sheet on 4 × 6 in photo paper, or the A4 sheet on A4, filling the page without borders. The sheet has exactly the paper's proportions, so each photo then prints at its true size.
  • Zoom starts at 100%, where the photo already fills the frame, and only goes in. If the head is too large even at 100%, use a photo taken from further away.
  • Choose JPG when an online form has a file size limit, and PNG when you want no compression at all.

Privacy and limits

The photo is read and cropped by your browser and is never uploaded. It is held in memory only while the page is open, nothing is saved, and pressing Replace or closing the tab discards it.

Frequently asked questions.

Is the Passport Photo Maker free?
Yes, completely free for everyone. No sign-up, no account and no usage limits.
Is it private? Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No upload, ever. The tool crops and resizes your photo entirely in your browser on your own device, the image never leaves your computer and nothing is sent to a server.
Which passport and visa sizes are supported?
Built-in presets cover US 2×2 in (51×51 mm), EU / India / UK 35×45 mm, China 33×48 mm and Canada 50×70 mm. For anything else, choose Custom and enter an exact width and height in millimetres or inches.
Can I print several photos on one sheet?
Yes. The print sheet section tiles as many copies as fit onto a 4×6 in or A4 page with light dashed cut lines. Six 35×45 mm photos fit on a single 4×6 print at most photo kiosks.
Will the photo be accepted by my authority?
This tool handles the exact size, cropping and print layout, but you're responsible for meeting your authority's photo rules, a plain light background, a neutral expression, correct head proportions and even lighting. Always check the current official guidance before you submit.
What resolution should I choose?
300 DPI is the standard for printed passport photos and is accepted everywhere. Choose 600 DPI only if your source photo is very sharp and you want extra headroom, it makes larger files with no visible gain from a soft original.
