How this tool works

What this preset is

Visa Photo Maker starts from a 600×600 px, about 100 KB preset commonly used for visa forms. It is an editable starting point, not an official visa specification.

Dimensions stay fixed

By default the tool never shrinks below 600×600. If it cannot reach 100 KB at that size, it reports the result as over target so your photo keeps the required dimensions.

Format and metadata

Output is JPG by default and you can choose PNG or WebP. Re-encoding removes EXIF and GPS metadata, and your photo is rendered onto the chosen background before export in every format. Print DPI is not embedded by the browser canvas; sizes are in pixels.

Verify before you submit

Photo rules for visa can change between sessions. Always compare the downloaded image with the latest official visa upload page before final submission.

Visa Photo Maker in your browser

Visa Photo Maker resizes your photo to 600×600 pixels and then compresses the selected output format toward a 100 KB target, all inside your browser. The dimensions and the target are editable, so you can match whatever the current visa form asks for.

By default the tool keeps the 600×600 dimensions fixed and compresses the chosen output format toward 100 KB. If it cannot reach the target at those dimensions, it keeps the dimensions and reports the achieved size as over target, so nothing is silently shrunk. You can turn on dimension reduction if size matters more than keeping the exact dimensions.

Photo requirements for visa can change between sessions and are not always documented, so treat these values as a convenient starting preset and confirm against the latest official upload page before final submission.

Why use this tool

Honest results

Visa Photo Maker shows the final dimensions and achieved KB, and marks the result over target when the size cannot be met at the fixed dimensions.

Strict dimensions

Keeps your chosen 600×600 width and height by default instead of silently shrinking the photo to hit the KB target.

Private by design

Your visa photo is processed in your browser with the HTML canvas and is never uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server by the Visa Photo Maker?

No. The photo is processed locally in your browser and is never uploaded.

What size does the Visa Photo Maker use?

It defaults to an editable 600×600 pixel square preset (a common 2×2 inch style) and compresses the selected output format toward about 100 KB.

Does it crop to visa rules or show a head guide?

No. It resizes to the square box with a cover, contain, or stretch fit and shows a preview, but there is no automatic head-size or eye-line guide. Frame your source photo first and review the preview.

Can it set DPI or a print sheet?

No. The browser canvas works in pixels with no embedded DPI and no multi-photo sheet. The pixel size approximates the common 2×2 inch physical size.

Does this guarantee my visa photo will be accepted?

No. Visa photo rules vary widely by country and consulate and can include checks this tool does not perform. Always follow the official guidance for your application.
