Tips for taking and uploading passport photos

  • 1. Ask a friend or your family person for help It’s much easier to take an acceptable photo with someone else’s help. No selfies allowed. Use a tripod if you are alone.
  • 2. Find a well-lit space with a plain light coloured background – for example, pale greys and blues work better than white.
  • 3. Avoid standing directly under a light source. It can create glare and shadows.
  • 4. Your light source will be most effective behind and above your photographer.
  • 5. Set up – Where to stand 0.5m to 1.5m.
  • 6. Stand 0.5 metres in front of your background, to help reduce shadows.
  • 7. The photographer or tripod should stand 1.5 metres away from you, to help keep your facial features in focus.
  • 8. Both eyes must be open.
  • 9. Your expression can be either neutral or with a natural smile.
  • 10. The photo must be a full-face view (side angles are not accepted).
  • 11. Clothing should be your with dark coloured.
  • 12. Hair should not be covering your face.
  • 13. No hats or head coverings should be worn. Exceptions include religious and medical reasons.
  • 14. The photographer or tripod should hold the camera at your eye level, to help you avoid tilting your head up or down.
  • 15. Open the smartphone or camera and take the photo. It may take a couple attempts to get a clear photo with neutral expression, no blur and no shadows behind you.
  • 16. Open the Gallery application on your phone and select your best photo.
  • 17. It’s easier to complete your order on a computer or laptop.
  • 18. We suggest that you send your photo to yourself and save it on a computer or laptop.
  • 19. Press the share button on your smartphone if you send it via Bluetooth to send your photo to your computer or laptop.

    Awesome service! This was my first order. At first I wanted to order business cards based on my own design, but I changed my mind after I saw your editors and premade templates.

    Thanks a lot! It was really fast! Loved how user-friendly was your interface.This was the first Time I've been ordering business cards and I saw very thorough and detailed requirements for the designs. They ahelped me a lot. I have also ordered some pocket calendars and I would be happy to make some more orders.

    Order came two days later due to the holidays. Other than that I've been always pretty happy with their work, mostly I've been ordering B2B-printing promotional materials and gifts.
    I like that I can create my own designs and that I don't need to hire anyone else if I can't pick one of the templates.
    I can request designer services using the company website and get a complete design based on my idea in no time.
