The standards for uk passport photos
With all applications, you must include two identical recent photographs. These must meet internationally agreed standards and must be of a true likeness of you.
The photographs must:
- be in colour, not black and white;
- be identical;
- be taken within the last month;
- be 45 millimetres (mm) high x 35 millimetres (mm) wide (do not trim your photographs to meet this condition);
- be in clear and sharp focus, with a clear difference between your face and the background;
- be taken against a plain cream or plain light grey background;
- not have red-eye; be of you facing forward, looking straight at the camera; not be torn, creased, or marked; be printed on plain white photographic;
- be free from shadows; be taken with your eyes open and clearly visible (no sunglasses or tinted glasses and no hair across your eyes);
- be free from reflection or glare on your glasses, and the frames must not cover your eyes (where possible, we recommend that you remove your glasses);
- show you with a neutral expression and your mouth closed (no grinning, frowning or raised eyebrows);
- be of you on your own (no toys, baby's dummy or other people on the photo);
- be professionally printed. Photographs printed at home are not likely to be of an acceptable quality;
- show your full head, without any head covering, unless you wear it for religious beliefs or medical reasons;
- be taken with nothing covering your face. Please make sure nothing covers the outline of your eyes, nose or mouth.
- be a close-up of your head and shoulders so that your head, from the bottom of your chin to your crown is between 29mm and 34mm high; and clear of writing on the front and back.
