How it works
Take a clear photo
Face the camera with a neutral expression, mouth closed and eyes open, in even light with no shadows.
Upload it here
The high-resolution 35 × 45 mm size and a light grey background are already selected. The AI replaces the background and crops to size.
Upload or print
Use the file in the GOV.UK online application, or print it at 35 × 45 mm for a paper form.
Making a UK passport photo at home
Ask someone else to take the photo at eye level rather than taking a selfie, and stand in front of a plain wall in daylight. Hair should be off your face and your eyes clearly visible.
The online application checks your photo when you upload it and tells you if something needs fixing, so you can try again straight away.
