Passport Size Photo Maker
Make a print-ready passport photo sheet in your browser. No watermark, no signup, nothing leaves your device. Crop your photo to the exact size your form asks for — 35 × 45 mm for India and Schengen, 2 × 2 inches for the US, or any custom size in millimetres — and the tool lays it out on a 4 × 6 inch sheet at 300 DPI, ready to print at any photo shop for the price of a single print.

How to use it
Add your photo
Drop a file in, paste one from your clipboard, or pick one from your phone. A plain background and even lighting give the best result — a photo taken against a white wall in daylight is usually accepted, one taken against a patterned curtain is usually not.
Choose the size
Pick your country or form from the list, or enter a custom size in millimetres. The crop box locks to that shape immediately, so you cannot accidentally produce a photo with the wrong proportions.
Position your face
Drag to move and pinch or scroll to zoom. Most authorities want the head to fill roughly 70–80% of the frame with a little space above the hair, looking straight at the camera with a neutral expression.
Download and print
Choose 4×6 photo paper for a shop or kiosk, or A4 to print at home, then save the sheet and cut along the guide lines. Print it at actual size — 100%, with no scaling, no auto-crop and no “fit to page”. Scaling is the one thing that will make the millimetres come out wrong, so measure the first photo with a ruler before cutting the rest.
Printing it at the right size
A 4×6 inch print is the cheapest and most widely available size in the world — every corner shop and kiosk handles it, usually for the price of a single print rather than per photo. Laying eight 35×45 mm photos onto one 4×6 sheet means one print instead of eight. Printing at home is usually A4 instead, so that is offered too: thirty of the same photos on one sheet, kept a few millimetres clear of the edges that home printers cannot reach.
Both sheets are generated at 300 DPI, the resolution print shops expect. At that density a 35×45 mm photo is exactly 413×531 pixels, a 4×6 sheet is 1800×1200 and an A4 sheet is 2480×3508. That resolution is written into the downloaded file itself, so software that honours it prints the photo at the size the form asked for.
The one thing that ruins it is scaling. “Fit to page” on an A4 printer stretches a 4×6 layout across the full width and enlarges every photo by about half again — the usual reason a home-printed passport photo comes back rejected as too large. Print at 100% or actual size, and check the first one with a ruler.
What this tool does not do
It does not remove or replace the background behind you. The automatic cutout tools that promise this are built for video calls, where a soft, approximate edge sits behind a blur and nobody looks closely. Printed at 300 DPI against flat white, the same edge shows every mistake — ragged hair, a halo around the shoulders, a chunk of wall left behind. On a document that gets rejected for exactly those faults, that is worse than not offering it. A photo taken against a plain wall in even light beats any automatic cutout, and costs nothing.
It also does not check whether your photo will be accepted. Rules on expression, head coverings, glasses, shadows and head height vary by country and change over time. This gets the dimensions, the resolution and the layout right, which is the part that is purely arithmetic — the rest is worth checking against the official instructions for your form.
Frequently asked questions
What size is an Indian passport photo?
35 × 45 mm, which is the default here. At 300 DPI that is exactly 413 × 531 pixels. The same size is used for Indian visa applications and most Schengen visa applications, and eight of them fit on one 4×6 inch sheet.
Is this free?
Yes, completely. There is no signup, no watermark on the output, no daily limit and no paid tier. The sheet you download is the finished file — nothing is held back.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. The photo is read by your browser with FileReader, cropped on a canvas in the page, and saved straight back to your device. There is no server involved in processing it, and the tool keeps working if you disconnect from the internet after the page has loaded.
Can I print this at a photo shop?
Yes — that is what the 4×6 inch sheet is for. Take the downloaded JPG to any shop or kiosk and ask for a standard 4×6 print at actual size, with no scaling, auto-crop or 'fit to page'. Then cut along the guide lines.
Can I print passport photos on A4 paper?
Yes. Choose A4 under 'Print on' and the sheet is rebuilt at 210 × 297 mm with as many photos as fit — thirty of the 35 × 45 mm size. Print it at 100%, or 'actual size', and switch off any 'fit to page' or 'scale to fit' option: fitting a 4×6 layout to an A4 page enlarges every photo by about half again, which is the usual reason home-printed passport photos come out too big.
How many photos fit on one sheet?
Eight for the 35 × 45 mm size on 4×6 paper, laid out four across and two down, or thirty on A4. The number is worked out from whichever size and paper you choose rather than fixed, and it is shown under the preview before you download.
Can I print just 4 or 6 photos instead of a full sheet?
Yes. Type the number you want into 'Photos on the sheet' and the rest of the paper is left blank — the copies are laid out in the middle so the cuts still run straight through. The box shows how many fit at the size and paper you picked, which is the most it will accept.
Will the printed photo be exactly the right size?
It will if you print at actual size. The file is generated at 300 DPI and that resolution is written into the JPG itself, so print software that respects it lays the photo down at the millimetres shown. What breaks the size is scaling — 'fit to page', 'shrink to fit', or a shop that auto-crops. Measure the first print with a ruler before you cut the rest.
Can I use a custom size in millimetres?
Yes. Choose Custom in the size list and type the width and height in millimetres. Anything between 10 mm and 150 mm is accepted, and the tool tells you how many will fit on the sheet.
Can this remove the background from my photo?
Not yet. Automatic background removal is built for video calls, where a soft edge hides behind a blur; printed at 300 DPI against white it leaves ragged hair and halos, which is exactly what gets a document rejected. Until it can be done well enough to trust, the honest answer is to photograph yourself against a plain wall in even light.
