Visa Photo FAQ

What size is a visa photo?▼
Visa photo sizes vary by country. US visa (DS-160) requires 2x2 inches (600x600 px). UK visa requires 35x45 mm. Schengen visa requires 35x45 mm. Indian visa requires 2x2 inches. IDPicly automatically formats to the correct size for your selected country.
Is visa photo different from passport photo?▼
Often they're the same, but not always. Some countries have different specs for visas vs passports. For example, Chinese visa photos have specific head size requirements different from Chinese passports. IDPicly handles both — just select your document type.
Can I use a digital visa photo for online applications?▼
Yes. Most visa applications (DS-160, UK visa, Schengen, etc.) accept digital uploads. IDPicly provides the exact pixel dimensions required for each country's online system.
How many visa photos do I need?▼
Typically 1-2 photos for the application, plus extras for interview/submission. IDPicly gives you a print sheet with 6-8 photos, more than enough for any visa application.
Do visa photos need white background?▼
Most countries require white or light gray backgrounds. Some (like India) specifically require white. A plain wall works best — we can also fix busy backgrounds and set the exact shade required for your visa type.
