Passport Photos

Best Passport Photo Size for Indian Applications

India passport photo dimensions in pixels and mm, plus how to make compliant photos for PSK, exams, and visas.

2026-05-03 · 5 min read

Indian passport photos are typically 35mm × 45mm (413 × 531 pixels at 300 DPI) with a plain light background and neutral expression.

Exam forms sometimes use smaller sizes — always match the portal screenshot, not a generic template.

Passport Seva vs exam forms

Passport Seva Kendra appointments need strict framing — head height, ears visible, no glasses glare.

SSC, NEET, and state exams may specify different pixel widths — use Clawdage Passport Photo Maker presets where available.

FAQ

Can I use a phone selfie for passport photo?
Only if it meets framing rules — plain wall, even light, no filters. The Passport Photo tool crops to standard ratios.
