What passport photo sizes does this tool support?

It includes presets for the US 2x2 inch (51x51 mm), UK and Schengen 35x45 mm, India passport and PAN, China visa 33x48 mm, Canada 50x70 mm, Australia, Japan 45x45 mm, Brazil, Nigeria DV lottery and a generic ID badge size. Each preset locks the crop to the correct aspect ratio and exports at the exact pixel dimensions for that specification.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. The entire tool runs inside your browser using the HTML canvas. Your photo is decoded, cropped and rendered to a print sheet locally, and nothing is ever sent over the network. Your settings are saved only in your own browser via localStorage.

What is the difference between 300 and 600 DPI?

DPI (dots per inch) sets how many pixels make up each printed inch. 300 DPI is the standard for photo printing and gives a 600x600 pixel image for a US 2x2 photo. 600 DPI doubles the pixel count for extra-sharp results on high-quality printers, at the cost of a larger file.

Can I print several copies on one sheet?

Yes. Choose a 4x6 inch, A4 or US Letter sheet and the tool tiles as many copies of your photo as fit, with a little spacing and optional thin cut guides so you can trim them apart. The live preview shows the grid size and exact number of copies before you export.

What background colour should I use?

Most countries require a plain white or light grey background. Each preset suggests the recommended colour and fills any empty area of the crop with it, but you can override the hex value. The tool does not remove an existing busy background, so start from a photo taken against a plain wall.

Does the photo meet official biometric requirements?

The tool produces the correct print size, aspect ratio, resolution and background fill, which covers the technical specifications. It cannot judge pose, lighting, expression or head proportions, so always check your government guidance on neutral expression, eye position and head size before submitting.

A browser-based passport and ID photo maker that turns an ordinary head-and-shoulders photo into a correctly sized, print-ready document photo. Pick the country or document you need, frame your face inside an aspect-locked crop box, and export either a single spec-size image or a full print sheet that tiles multiple copies onto a 4x6, A4 or US Letter page — all without uploading a single byte.

How it works

Official passport photos are defined by three things: a precise physical size (for example 51x51 mm for the US or 35x45 mm for the UK and Schengen), a minimum resolution, and a plain background. This tool encodes those rules. When you select a preset it locks the crop rectangle to that document’s exact width-to-height ratio, so you can drag the corners freely and the framing always stays in proportion.

When you export, the selected region of your photo is drawn onto an off-screen canvas sized in real pixels — width in millimetres divided by 25.4, multiplied by your chosen DPI. A US 2x2 photo at 300 DPI becomes exactly 600x600 pixels; at 600 DPI it is 1200x1200. Any empty area inside the crop is filled with the recommended background colour. The print-sheet builder then composes a second canvas at the page size, centres a grid of copies, adds a small margin between them and optional hairline cut guides, and hands you a PNG via the browser’s native canvas.toBlob. Because everything happens client-side, your photo never leaves your device, and your last-used settings are remembered in localStorage.

Example

Suppose you need US visa photos. Choose the US 2x2 inch preset and a 4x6 inch sheet at 300 DPI. Upload a photo taken against a white wall, then drag the crop box so your eyes sit near the upper guide line and your chin stays above the lower one. The preview shows a clean 600x600 px photo. The sheet panel reports a 2 x 3 grid = 6 copies. Download the sheet, print it at a photo kiosk or on glossy paper, and trim along the guides — six identical, correctly sized photos for the price of one print. Switch the preset to UK 35x45 mm and the same workflow produces eight copies on the same 4x6 sheet instead.

Every figure is computed in your browser. No photo, measurement or setting is ever uploaded.
