We follow visa photo specs for 5 destinations. Plenty of e-visa systems reuse the same biometric crop and upload limits, so if yours is absent, a destination on the same standard is a dependable substitute.

How the specs are held
  • Built on ICAO 9303 — each spec is checked against the international civil aviation standard.
  • Sized for upload — output fits embassy and e-visa file-size limits without extra steps.
