Tips

A UK printed passport photo must be 45 mm high by 35 mm wide, with the head 29 to 34 mm from chin to crown, and it can’t be cut down from a larger photo, so use this shape for previews and online forms rather than for printing. Online applications use a digital photo at least 600 by 750 pixels.

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping reduce quality?

The cropped area keeps its original pixels. Saving as JPG adds slight compression; use PNG for none.

Can I crop to an exact pixel size?

Choose a shape, then enter an output width; the height follows the shape.

Are my photos uploaded?

No, they’re cropped on your device.

Does it work on phones?

Yes, drag with your finger.
