Resize Photo to Passport Size Online
Resize photos to standard passport dimensions (2×2 inches, 600×600px). Works for US, UK, EU, and international passport applications. Free, private.
Passport photo requirements are notoriously strict — the wrong dimensions, resolution, or file size will get your application rejected. The US standard is 2×2 inches (51×51mm, typically 600×600 pixels at 300 DPI), while the UK uses 35×45mm and most EU countries follow the ICAO standard of 35×45mm. Getting these exact dimensions right the first time saves you a trip back to the photo studio.
Our resizer lets you crop and scale any portrait photo to passport-compliant dimensions. Upload a well-lit headshot taken against a plain background, set the pixel dimensions for your country's requirements, and the tool scales the image precisely. You'll get a clean, properly sized photo ready to submit online or print at home.
This is particularly useful for digital passport applications, visa e-forms, and online ID verification services that accept uploaded photos. Many government portals require specific file sizes (often under 100KB or 200KB) — pair our resizer with our image compressor to meet both dimension and size requirements in one workflow.
