Convert any portrait into a 300 DPI passport-size photo instantly. Free online tool to resize, remove backgrounds, adjust lighting, and generate 4x6 print sheets for US, UK, Canada, and custom visas.
The inspiration for this portrait to passport-size converter came from a moment of genuine urgency. Our founder needed to submit a digital passport for an official application immediately, but with no professional photo facility nearby, he had to rely on a smartphone portrait. The results from existing online tools were weak—pixelated, poorly cropped, and lacking the 300 DPI resolution required for official documents. That frustration led to the development of this high-precision tool, designed to turn a standard mobile photo into a government-compliant ID.
Creating an official ID photo is more than just cropping an image; it requires meeting strict ICAO biometric standards. Most casual users don't realize that lighting, eye positioning, and background contrast can lead to a rejected application. We built this tool to bridge the gap between a casual "selfie" and a professional passport photo, integrating AI-powered background removal and precise lighting adjustments to ensure your photo meets the formal requirements of the US, UK, Canada, and beyond.
One of the most practical features we included was the 4x6 print sheet generator. We realized that even after creating a perfect digital image, users still faced the high cost of individual passport prints. By allowing you to arrange multiple copies on a standard 4x6 canvas, we’ve made it possible to print a whole set of visa photos for pennies at any local photo lab. It’s about providing a professional-grade solution for those "I need it now" situations without sacrificing image quality.
Compliance Pro-Tip: To ensure your photo is accepted the first time, pay close attention to your head height and eye level. Use our built-in biometric overlays to align your face within the designated zone. Government agencies are strict about "head-to-canvas" ratios; by using these guides and ensuring a neutral background, you significantly reduce the risk of your application being flagged for "non-compliant imagery."
Passport photo sizes vary by country. The United States requires 2×2 inches (51×51 mm), while the UK and Europe generally use 3.5×4.5 cm. This tool includes preset templates for common countries and allows you to enter custom dimensions for specific visa requirements.
Yes. All generated passport photos are output at 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch). This is the strict standard required by photo labs and government agencies to ensure your photo prints clearly and at the exact physical dimensions without pixelation.
Yes. The tool includes a built-in 4×6 print sheet generator. It automatically arranges multiple perfectly-spaced copies of your passport photo onto a standard 4×6 inch digital canvas, making it cheap and easy to print at home or at any local photo center.
The tool uses an AI engine to automatically detect your silhouette and replace your original background with a solid, regulation-compliant color (like white or light blue). For the best cut-out, wear a shirt that contrasts well with your original background.
This tool provides an ICAO Biometric Mode with visual overlays to help you align your head size and eye position perfectly. While we provide the tools to adjust lighting, size, and backgrounds to meet standards, you should always verify the final generated photo against your specific country's official guidelines before submission.
