UK passport photo 35×45 mm

UK passport photographs are 45 mm high by 35 mm wide — the same millimetre box as an Indian passport print, with different background and quality rules. This page selects the UK 35×45 preset.

GOV.UK publishes the official rules, including expression, shadows, and whether a digital photo or a printed photo is required for your route. This tool only crops and prints. It does not replace the UK photo checker or a Post Office / booth when that is required.

Background and digital upload

Many UK passport photos use a light grey or cream background rather than a studio-white Indian PSK wall. Set the background colour here to match the notice. Remove a busy room if the original photo is not already plain.

Online UK applications often want a digital file within a size range. Crop 35×45 first, then Image Resize if the upload is too large.

UK visa versus UK passport

UK visa photos also commonly use 35×45 mm. Open Visa photo maker if you are preparing a visa pack rather than a British passport. US 2×2 is a different crop.

Frequently asked questions

What size is a UK passport photo?

45 mm high by 35 mm wide (35×45 mm). Confirm on GOV.UK for your application type.

Is a UK passport photo the same as an Indian 35x45?

The millimetre size matches. Background colour and other rules can differ. Do not assume a PSK print will pass a UK check.

Is this the official UK photo tool?

No. It is a free crop and print helper. Use GOV.UK guidance and any photo checker the application requires.

Can I print UK passport photos at home?

You can print a 35×45 sheet here. Some applications still require a professional print — follow the notice.
