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 35 × 45 mm. A few millimetres off and most offices hand the form back before anything else is checked.
Digital size — the digital file must measure 413 × 531 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.

How to take a Russia Visa Photo with your phone
Photo size and passport size
The Russia visa photo is 35×45 mm on a plain white background, the same rectangle the Russian passport uses. One compliant session covers either crop. The applications differ in paperwork; the photo rectangle is the same.
Setup and lighting
Stand half a metre from the wall, keep the phone level with your eyes and leave space above the head. Frontal daylight or two even lamps light both sides of the face equally; neutral expression, mouth closed, no hat.
Review checks
Russian submissions are checked for the rectangle, the background and the centre. Off-white walls, shadows and faces tilted out of centre are the named faults. Postcard-style retouching fails the same check.
Output format and checks
The preset crops to the exact 35×45 mm rectangle at 300 dpi on pure white. Downloads here pass a ratio and background check first.
Why Russia Visa Photo gets rejected
Photo dimensions
Photos come back for the wrong rectangle before any other fault: 35×45 mm portrait, not a square and not a landscape crop.
Background and centre
Off-white or shadowed backgrounds, and faces tilted out of centre. Both are visible to the officer at a glance.
Retouching and glasses
Postcard-style retouching and glare on glasses follow; blur from hand shake ends the review.

Photo tips
Frequently asked questions
What size is a Russia Visa Photo?
The standard size is 35 × 45 mm (413 × 531 px at 300 DPI). The tool crops and scales your photo to exact requirements automatically.
Can I smile in the photo?
Requirements call for: a natural expression. When in doubt, keep a neutral face with both eyes open.
How recent must the photo be?
Old photos are a common rejection reason.
Is my photo private?
Yes. Uploaded photos are encrypted in transit and automatically deleted within 24 hours. We never share or resell uploads.
Can I take it with my phone?
Yes. Plain wall, even light, eye-level camera; the tool handles the exact 35×45 mm crop and background.
Is the visa photo the same as the Russian passport photo?
Both follow the 35×45 mm white format, so one compliant session covers either crop.
