About the Schengen Visa Photo

Produce a Schengen visa (35×45mm) photo at the official size: 413×531 pixels (300 DPI print standard). The interactive editor shows a head-position oval and eye-line guide modeled on the common standards — align the face, adjust the crop, and export at exactly the required dimensions. Everything stays on your device.

How it works

The editor implements the ICAO-aligned 35×45mm European standard — 413×531 pixels at 300 DPI — with guides for the required head height (roughly 70–80% of the frame) and eye line. Background replacement to plain light gray or white covers the common submission requirement.

How to use it

Drop one photo taken against a plain background, align the face with the ICAO guides, pick the background treatment, and download the 413×531 print-ready result.

Supported formats & limitations

Accepts .jpg, .png and .webp up to 30MB; single-photo editing; output 413×531px at 300 DPI. Individual consulates occasionally add requirements (recency, expression) — geometry is handled here; the rest is on the checklist.

Common use cases

Schengen tourist and business visas, national European residence permits, and any application citing the 35×45mm standard — the most common photo format in the world after the US 2×2.
