In today’s fast-paced world, international travel is more accessible than ever, and we have your
guaranteed international passport photos. Thomas Bruce Studio has your back
Whether you’re renewing
your passport, applying for a visa, or preparing for an exciting overseas adventure, one small yet crucial
detail can make or break your application—your passport photo.
While it might seem like a simple task, getting an international passport photo that meets the exact
requirements of your country is no easy feat. Different nations have different specifications for size,
background color, and even facial expressions. A minor mistake—like a shadow on your face or an
incorrect photo size—can result in rejection and delays, turning an already stressful process into a
frustrating ordeal.
Why Not Just Go Anywhere for Passport Photos?
You might think, “I’ll just pop into the nearest pharmacy or use an app to take my own passport photo.” But
here’s the problem—one size does NOT fit all when it comes to international passport photos.
Each country has its own strict guidelines, and a U.S. passport photo won’t work for a Canadian,
European, or Australian passport. Some key differences include:
✅ Photo Size – While U.S. passport photos are 2×2 inches, European Union countries typically require
35x45mm, and Canada insists on 50x70mm—yes, even a few millimeters can make a difference!
✅ Background Color – The U.S. requires a plain white or off-white background, while some countries (like China) may require a light blue background.
✅ Facial Expression – The U.S. and Canada allow a neutral expression with a slight, natural smile, but the U.K., Australia, and many other countries require a completely neutral face—no smiling, no teeth showing, no raised eyebrows!
✅ Head Position & Proportions – Some countries specify exact head size measurements, ensuring your face takes up a certain percentage of the frame. A slight tilt of the head or incorrect cropping can cause rejection.
✅ Glasses & Accessories – Most countries now prohibit glasses unless medically necessary, and some won’t allow earrings, hair covering the face, or even certain hairstyles.
