Create a United Kingdom Visa Photo That Meets Official Requirements

Applying for a UK ETA, or asked to upload a photo of your face with a visa application? UKVI wants a JPG of at least 600 × 750 px, 50 KB–6 MB, showing your head, shoulders and upper body on a plain light background. For a visa itself, the photo is taken with your fingerprints at the visa application centre.

How it works

1

Upload a photo

Take a photo with your phone or upload an existing picture from your device.

Adjust the framing

The generator crops the picture to the official size and automatically positions it on the face; slightly align it with the template and fine-tune the zoom, brightness and contrast.

3

Download or print

Download a digital copy or a print-ready sheet and print it at home or in any photo shop.

United Kingdom's official rules cover more than size. The background must be plain and light-coloured. Keep a neutral expression with your mouth closed. Avoid wearing glasses unless necessary, and never sunglasses or tinted lenses. Head coverings are allowed only for religious or medical reasons, with your face fully visible.
