The 35×45mm ICAO standard, explained

35×45mm is the ICAO international standard used by the UK, the EU/Schengen area and Australia for passports and visas. At standard print resolution (300 DPI), 35mm equals ~413 pixels and 45mm equals ~531 pixels — exactly what this page pre-sets.

One honest note: this tool resizes your photo to the correct dimensions — it does not change backgrounds, lighting or face positioning. The UK requires a plain light-grey or cream background and a neutral expression. Start with a straight-on, well-lit photo, crop it roughly to portrait framing, then resize here.

Tips

  • Portrait framing first. Crop your photo to a vertical rectangle with head and shoulders before resizing — the tool sets dimensions, not composition.
  • Plain light background. The UK wants plain light-grey or cream; Schengen wants plain light. This tool cannot replace backgrounds.
  • Aspect lock stays off. Passport dimensions are exact — the lock is disabled so you get precisely 413×531 px.
  • Not for the US or Canada. The US needs 2×2 inches (600×600 px) and Canada needs 50×70mm — different pages, different sizes.
  • Print at 300 DPI actual size. Tell the print shop 35×45mm at actual size so the millimeter math holds.

Common uses

  • UK passport applications — the official 35×45mm requirement.
  • Schengen visa photos — most EU countries use the same 35×45mm ICAO standard.
  • Australian passports — Australia also uses 35×45mm.
  • EU national ID cards — ID and residence permit photos across Europe.

Frequently asked questions

Is 413×531 the correct size for 35×45mm?

Yes — at 300 DPI (standard print resolution), 35mm equals ~413 pixels and 45mm equals ~531 pixels. These are the exact pixel dimensions this page pre-sets.

Does Australia use 35×45mm too?

Yes — Australian passports use 35×45mm, same as the UK and Schengen visas. One page covers all three.

What about Canada?

Canada is the exception — it requires a larger 50×70mm photo. Use our Canada 50×70mm page instead.

Does this tool make the background white?

No — it resizes to the exact required dimensions only. Start with a photo against a plain light background.

Will my photo be accepted?

The dimensions will be exactly right, which is this tool’s job. Acceptance also depends on framing, lighting, background and recency — check gov.uk’s passport photo rules.
