Most Argentina visa applications ask for the same photo specification as the Argentina passport: exactly 40×40 mm at 300 DPI, plain white, saved as JPEG. This tool fits and checks your photo against that shared specification — always confirm the exact requirement on your specific visa form, since some visa categories occasionally differ from the passport standard.
Reference data, not legal advice. 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 Argentina visa photo need to be?
exactly 40×40 mm at 300 DPI, plain white, saved as JPEG. See the requirements table above for the full breakdown.
What is the Argentina visa photo size in pixels?
472×472 pixels at 300 DPI (40×40 mm). The tool sets this automatically from the DPI you choose.
What background does Argentina require?
Plain white. 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 Argentina visa 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 Argentina visa photo?
No published file size limit is listed for Argentina in this reference set — check the destination site directly if your application enforces one.
