Passport Photo — Australia Resizer

What matters

Passport Photo — Australia dimensions at a glance

Australian passport photos must be exactly 35×45mm (413×531 pixels at 300 DPI). The head must be 32-36mm tall, centered, with a plain white background.

Incorrect dimensions or composition will cause your passport application to be rejected. Australian requirements are strictly enforced at application processing.

Applications with non-compliant photos are rejected, causing delays and additional costs. Common failures include wrong head size, shadows on background, and incorrect dimensions.

Best practices

Use the crop intentionally

• Use a plain white background with even lighting and no shadows.
• Ensure the head height is 32-36mm within the 45mm frame height.
• Neutral expression, mouth closed, eyes open and clearly visible — no glasses since 2016.
