Frequently asked questions

What size is a Schengen visa photo?
35 × 45 mm, which is 413 × 531 pixels at 300 DPI. The face should fill about 70–80% of the height (chin to crown roughly 32–36 mm), centred, on a plain light background. This tool outputs exactly 413×531 px.
How do I frame my face correctly?
Use the zoom and up/down sliders so your head fills most of the frame with a little space above it and your eyes looking straight ahead. The preview updates live.
Does it change my background?
It fills the edges with white or light grey but does not cut you out — photograph against a plain light wall for an accepted result.
