How it works
Take a clear photo
Look straight at the camera with a neutral expression and your mouth closed, in even light with no shadows.
Upload it here
“Passport, 35 × 45 mm” and a light grey background are already selected. Switch to white if your consulate asks for it.
Print at 35 × 45 mm
Print on photo paper and bring or attach it as your visa application instructs.
What makes a good Schengen visa photo
Your face should fill most of the frame, looking straight ahead with both eyes clearly visible and no shadows on your face or the background.
Apply through the consulate or visa centre of the country you will spend the most time in; its website lists the exact photo rules.
