Saudi Arabia Visa Photo Size

Most Saudi Arabia visa applications ask for the same photo specification as the Saudi Arabia passport: exactly 40×60 mm at 300 DPI, plain light gray, no shadows, 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.
