Understanding India Photo Requirements
Important Disclaimer
Government regulations and biometric requirements can change without notice. While we strive to keep this tool updated, you should always verify the exact dimensions, background color, and file size limits on the official India government or embassy website before submitting your application.
Applying for a passport or visa for India requires strict adherence to their biometric photo guidelines. An incorrect photo size, improper background, or blurry image is one of the most common reasons for application delays or rejections.
Our free, privacy-first resizer tool above allows you to select your target document type and automatically crop your photo to the exact millimeter dimensions required by India. The tool also compresses the final JPEG to ensure it falls under the maximum file size limit, which is especially critical for digital e-Visa and online passport renewals.
