Australia Passport Photo Size

Australia passport photos must be exactly 35×45 mm at 300 DPI, plain white or light grey, contrasting with the face, saved as JPEG. Upload a photo below, crop it to the exact ratio, and this tool checks it against those requirements — aspect ratio, print resolution, format, and file size are verified automatically.

Reference data, not legal advice — confirm against the current official source before you submit anything. ICAO-style 35×45 mm standard, confirmed via passports.gov.au. Head size, background color, lighting, and expression aren't checked automatically; that needs face-detection features this build doesn't include yet.

Only helps if your background is already one plain color (e.g. a wall) — this is color-distance math, not real subject cutout, so it won't do anything useful against busy or textured backgrounds.

Frequently asked questions

What size does a Australia passport photo need to be?

exactly 35×45 mm at 300 DPI, plain white or light grey, contrasting with the face, saved as JPEG. See the requirements table above for the full breakdown.

What background does Australia require?

Plain white or light grey, contrasting with the face. Photograph against a plain wall or sheet in that color for the best result — the "flatten background to white" option in the tool can help clean up a close-but-not-perfect background too.

Can I use a phone photo for my Australia passport application?

Yes, as long as it's well-lit, in focus, and shot against a plain background you can crop tightly around.

Is there a file size limit for a Australia passport photo?

No published file size limit is listed for Australia in this reference set — check the destination site directly if your application enforces one.
