Australian Passport

Your Australian passport photo — 45×35 mm, print-ready, in about a minute.

Upload any selfie, against any background. We drop in the plain light background the Australian Passport Office asks for, crop your face to the 32–34 mm the rules require, and hand you a finished 45×35 mm JPEG plus a print-ready 4×6 sheet to take to any photo printer. See your photo free before you pay.

  • Every measurement comes from the published spec, linked below.
A woman in a cream knit sweater sitting on a dark green sofa in front of bright net curtains, facing the camera — an ordinary photo taken at home, of an AI-generated model rather than a real customer.
The same photo finished as an Australian passport photo: the room removed, a plain light background dropped in, her head cropped to the taller 45×35 mm frame.
The person is an AI-generated model, not a customer — but the finished photos are real: they are the files our live pipeline returned when that photo was run against the spec below.

What you get, before you upload anything

This is the photo you download — and the report that comes with it, pass or fail.

Your selfieThe starting selfie: a woman in a cream knit sweater sitting on a dark green sofa in front of a bright curtained window, with the room filling most of the frame.
What you downloadThe finished Australian passport photo: the same woman, head and shoulders on a plain light background, cropped to the taller 45 by 35 mm portrait shape.
The model is AI-generated — not a customer. The photo on the right is the file our pipeline returned when that exact selfie was run against the spec on this page, not a mock-up and not retouched afterwards.

Australian Passport

Your new photo
2 things need a retake — you weren't charged. Fix these and re-upload — we remake it free every time.

Needs a retake

  • Glasses detected
    These photos can't include glasses — take them off and retake. Reflections and frames are a top rejection reason.
  • Something dark behind your shoulder
    A dark object survives the background cleanup. Retake with clear space behind you.
What we changedAuto
  • Cropped to the official frame
    Head sized to 59% of the frame, eyes on the required line.
  • Saved as a compliant JPEG
    87 KB — under the size limit.
All 5 checks passed on your new photo
  • One person, facing the camera
  • Eyes open, neutral expression
  • Head straight
  • Sharp and in focus
  • Face evenly lit

About 4 in 10 first uploads fail a check — the portal would have rejected those too. Retakes are free — up to 20 tries an hour. We only get paid when it passes.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

Is this an official Australian Passport Office or DFAT service?

No. We're an independent service that makes and checks passport photos — not affiliated with the Australian Passport Office or the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The official passports.gov.au photo requirements are linked below if you'd rather do it yourself.

Australia asks for printed photos — can I still use this?

Yes. Australian passport applications take two printed photos, so we give you a print-ready 4×6 sheet to take to any photo printer, plus the finished file. Have it printed on good-quality glossy photo paper (the rules ask for heavy-weight, at least 200 gsm) rather than an inkjet at home, and lodge the two prints with your application.

Is the background meant to be white or grey?

Either. The Australian Passport Office accepts a plain white or plain light-grey background, as long as it clearly contrasts with your face. We render a plain light grey because pure white can wash out against pale skin and lose that contrast — grey keeps you clearly separated from the background.

What happens if my photo fails a check?

You won't be charged. We show you exactly which check failed and how to fix it, so you can retake the photo and try again for free.

What if my photo is rejected after I pay?

Instant refund: open the refund link in your receipt, tell us it was rejected, and the money goes back to your card on the spot — no screenshots, no forms. Covers 30 days from purchase.

What happens to my photo?

It’s used only to run the checks, downloadable by you for 7 days, then deleted automatically. No account, no photo library, no reuse.

What exactly do you check?

Every rule in the official photo spec, measured with numbers you can verify against the official source:

Photo size45 × 35 mm (about 1063 × 827 pixels at 600 dpi)† (derived from official print specification)
File size50 KB – 10 MB† (derived from official print specification)
FormatJPEG† (derived from official print specification)
Head height71–80% of the photo's height (32–36 mm, chin to crown)
Eye height50–68% up from the bottom of the photo† (derived from official print specification)
