Saudi Arabia passport photos must be exactly 40×60 mm at 300 DPI, plain light gray, no shadows, saved as JPEG. Upload a photo below, crop it to the exact ratio, and this tool checks it against those requirements — aspect ratio, print resolution, format, and file size are verified automatically.
Reference data, not legal advice — confirm against the current official source before you submit anything. 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 Saudi Arabia passport photo need to be?
exactly 40×60 mm at 300 DPI, plain light gray, no shadows, saved as JPEG. See the requirements table above for the full breakdown.
What is the Saudi Arabia passport photo size in pixels?
472×709 pixels at 300 DPI (40×60 mm). The tool sets this automatically from the DPI you choose.
What background does Saudi Arabia require?
Plain light gray, no shadows. 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 Saudi Arabia passport 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 Saudi Arabia passport photo?
No published file size limit is listed for Saudi Arabia 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. Commonly cited 40×60mm (4×6cm) size with a ~38mm head height target — confirm against the current Saudi passport/Jawazat or e-Visa portal guidance, as sources conflict (some cite 100×150mm for older passport formats).
