One upload, two deliveries: the pixel-exact digital file and a 300 dpi print-ready sheet.

What each line means

Printed size — print at exactly 31 × 39 mm. A few millimetres off and most offices hand the form back before anything else is checked.

Digital size — the digital file must measure 366 × 461 px. Anything smaller gets refused by many online systems before a person sees it.

Background — a plain White background, with no shadows or gradients. A wall lit unevenly is the fastest route to a refusal.

Resolution — 300 dpi keeps a face sharp in print. Below that, features soften and agencies ask for a retake.

Recency — Recent. Hair, glasses and weight change faster than people assume, and the officer compares the photo with you at the counter.

Digital format — some portals accept a single file type and quietly refuse everything else. Check what you are handing over before you upload.

Look straightHead level, eyes into the lens, shoulders square to the camera.
Neutral faceMouth closed, both eyes open unless your document allows a smile.
Mind the glasses ruleSome documents do not allow glasses — check the requirements table.
Everyday clothesDark top over white is easiest; avoid uniforms and hats.
