- Plain, light background with nothing behind your head.
- Even light on the face, with no hard shadows on the face or background.
- Face the camera, eyes open, neutral expression, the whole head in the frame.
- No glasses if the rules you apply forbid them. Check the authority’s rules for hats and head coverings.
The passport photo maker opens with the China visa size, 33 × 48 mm, already chosen. It is narrower and taller than the 35 × 45 mm photo, so the frame changes shape. Zoom until your head fills the oval between the chin and crown lines, which are drawn for a head 28 to 33 mm tall.
The print sheet comes in 4 × 6 in, A4 or Letter, with cut marks, so choose the paper you have. Look up the current Chinese visa requirements before you send the photo.

Questions
How do I enter 3.3 × 4.8 cm?
It is the same size as 33 × 48 mm. Choose China visa in the list; there is no need for Custom size.
What head size does the guide use?
The guide is drawn for a head 28 to 33 mm tall from chin to crown, inside a 33 × 48 mm photo. Zoom until your head fills the oval.
Will my photo be uploaded?
No. The photo is drawn onto a canvas in your browser, and the file never leaves your device.
Are the sizes official?
US 2 × 2 in (passport and visa), UK 35 × 45 mm and Canada 50 × 70 mm come from each government’s own photo page, checked at the time of writing. The authority’s current rules always win, so check them before you apply. The Schengen visa, Australia passport and China visa sizes are the ones usually published for those documents, but a consulate can ask for something different. For any other country, use Custom with the size it publishes.
Why does the file say 300 dpi?
The JPG carries a 300 dpi tag, so a print at 100% comes out at the true size. Turn off “fit to page” or any scaling in the print dialog, or a print shop may shrink it.
Can I print the passport photo at home?
Some authorities accept a home print on photo paper, and some want a professional print or an online upload with its own pixel size. Check the authority’s rules first; this tool only makes the photo and the sheet.
