- Photo size
- 350 × 350 px
- Head height (crown to chin)
- 25–35 mm
- Eye line (from bottom of photo)
- 28–35 mm
- Background
- Any plain, light color
Plain, light-colored or white background (verbatim: "Background should be plain light colored or white background") — a broader allowance than the passport photo's white-only rule. Must contrast clearly with the applicant's face.
- Glasses
- Not allowed
- Headwear
- Allowed for religious purposes only
- Expression
- Full face, front view, eyes open; center the head within the frame showing the full head from top of hair to bottom of chin. No explicit 'neutral expression/mouth closed' rule is stated for this document the way there is for the passport photo, but is assumed here for compliance safety.
- File format
- JPEG
- Resolution
- 300 DPI
- File size
- 10–300 KB
Good to know
- File-size limit used here (10-300KB) is the STRICTER of two genuinely different official figures found on sibling pages of the same domain (Regular Visa: 10-300KB; e-Visa: 10KB-1MB) — chosen deliberately as the safer, more broadly-compliant default, since a photo meeting the 300KB cap also satisfies the more permissive e-Visa cap.
