Philippines Passport Photo

About Philippines Passport Photo

A Philippine passport photo is 35×45 mm - 413×531 pixels at print resolution - the ICAO standard used by the DFA for e-passports, NOT the 2×2 inch square that countless websites wrongly cite. This tool crops and sizes your photo to exactly the correct 35×45 mm in your browser, with a head-position oval as a guide, so you are not caught out by the widespread misinformation. The 2×2 inch confusion is the single biggest trap here: 2×2 is a US format used in the Philippines only for other documents - NBI clearance, some job and school forms - not for a DFA passport. Submitting a 2×2 photo for a passport risks rejection. For the e-passport itself, the DFA usually captures your photo digitally at the appointment, but the correct 35×45 mm size is what applies where a photo is needed. Because the Philippines uses the international 35×45 mm format, the same size serves many other countries' applications too, on a plain white background with a neutral expression. The photo must be recent and clearly show the full face. Everything runs in this tab - your photo is cropped, sized and handed back without being uploaded, which for a document photo is exactly right. Important: this tool sizes and frames the photo to the exact 35×45 mm dimensions and shows a head-position guide, but it cannot certify that your photo meets every official rule. Always check the result against the official guidance before you submit it.
