How to Crop and Clean Photos for Passports Online

Published in Guides · EzSizer Toolkit

Passport Photo Requirements

Standard passport and visa photos require specific aspect ratios (like 2x2 inches for US, or 35x45mm for Europe/India). Furthermore, the background needs to be plain white or off-white.

The Edge Whitening Trick

Taking a photo against a wall often leaves shadows on the edges. EzSizer has a specialized tool that whitens the edges of the photo without touching the subject in the center, giving you a studio-like white background instantly.

Cropping Safely

Use the rule of thirds. Keep your eyes in the top third of the photo. Ensure there is visible space above your head and your shoulders are visible.
