Start with a clear portrait
Choose a front-facing photo with enough resolution, even lighting, and a visible head and shoulders. A cleaner source image usually produces a better passport-style result.
Crop for face position and headroom
Use the crop and portrait alignment tools to center the face, balance shoulder placement, and avoid cutting too close to the top, chin, or sides.
Clean or replace the background
Prepare a plain, consistent background when the original photo includes shadows, furniture, patterns, or uneven color behind the subject.
Export or print after checking rules
Set the required output size, review brightness and framing, then export or print the photo after confirming the official passport photo requirements.
