FAQ
What size is an Australian passport photo?
An Australian passport photo must be 35 mm wide and 45 mm tall. The face, measured from the chin to the crown, should occupy approximately 32–36 mm of the frame. Eyes should be positioned between 28–36 mm from the bottom of the photo.
What background is required for an Australian passport photo?
The background must be plain white or off-white. No patterns, gradients, or coloured backgrounds are permitted. There must be no shadows cast on the background by the subject.
Can I wear glasses in an Australian passport photo?
No. Glasses have not been permitted in Australian passport photos since 2016.
Does my photo get uploaded to your servers?
No. Every step — upload, edit, background removal, and export — happens locally in your browser. Your photo is never transmitted to or stored on any server.
Is this tool free?
Yes, completely free. No account needed, no subscription, no watermark.
Can I use a digital photo for my Australian passport application?
Yes, if you are applying online through the Australian Passport Office. The exported PNG meets the digital requirements. For paper applications submitted at Australia Post, you will need two printed photos.
Where can I print Australian passport photos?
Take the downloaded print sheet to Australia Post, Officeworks, Kmart Photo, or any local print shop. Request a standard 6×4-inch print — the sheet is pre-formatted for the correct 35×45 mm size.
Does my passport photo need to be certified by a guarantor?
If your appearance has changed significantly or this is your first Australian passport, a guarantor may need to sign the back of one photo confirming it is a true likeness of you. Check the current DFAT guidelines for your specific application type.
