India Visa Photo Size

Most India visa applications ask for the same photo specification as the India passport: exactly 35×45 mm (630×810 pixels), 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.

Photo size35 × 45 mm (1.38 × 1.77 in)
Size in pixels630 × 810 px exactly — the online upload checks this
Print resolution300 DPI minimum
Head height32–36 mm chin to crown

Max file sizeNo limit published in this reference set
File formatJPEG
SourceCommonly cited — verify. ICAO-style 35×45 mm. The Passport Seva upload rejects anything that is not exactly 630×810 pixels ("Image Size is not correct. Dimensions should be 630*810 pixels"), so the output is fixed at that pixel size rather than derived from DPI. This replaces the older 2×2 in / 51×51 mm standard.

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 India visa photo need to be?

exactly 35×45 mm (630×810 pixels), plain white, saved as JPEG. See the requirements table above for the full breakdown.

What is the India visa photo size in pixels?

Exactly 630×810 pixels — the online application rejects other sizes, so the tool outputs that size directly.

What background does India 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 India 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 India visa photo?

No published file size limit is listed for India in this reference set — check the destination site directly if your application enforces one.

How confident are you in this data?

Marked "commonly cited — verify" rather than "widely documented" in the requirements table above. ICAO-style 35×45 mm. The Passport Seva upload rejects anything that is not exactly 630×810 pixels ("Image Size is not correct. Dimensions should be 630*810 pixels"), so the output is fixed at that pixel size rather than derived from DPI. This replaces the older 2×2 in / 51×51 mm standard.
