UAE Visa Photo

About UAE Visa Photo

A UAE visa photo - for Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the wider Emirates - is 43×55 mm, 508×650 pixels at print resolution, with the face filling roughly 70 to 80% of the frame on a plain white background. This tool crops and sizes your photo to exactly that in your browser, with a head-position oval as a guide. The 43×55 mm size is specific to the UAE and different from every other common format. Because the UAE size is unusual, a photo cut for a passport elsewhere will be the wrong shape, and the white background is mandatory - grey or off-white is refused. The face must fill most of the frame, more than a casual portrait, with a neutral expression and the eyes clearly visible. UAE visa photos are used across all visa categories, and the requirement is consistent: 43×55 mm, white background, large clear face. Digital submissions are commonly high resolution; this tool outputs 508×650 px, matching the print size at 300 DPI. 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 43×55 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.
