Crop a Photo to the Passport Photo Size (413×531)
Passport photos get rejected over a few pixels, not over the shot itself. Choose the passport photo size from the spec row, drag the frame over the head, and the output lands on those exact pixels.

A passport photo is unforgiving about two numbers: the pixel width and height, and where the head sits in the frame. Get those right and almost any clean portrait passes. The same frame also handles 1 inch, 2 inch and visa sizes, so one sitting can cover every form on the desk.
Passport and other ID photo sizes
| Spec | Pixels | Millimetres (300 DPI) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 inch | 295 × 413 | 25 × 35 |
| 2 inch | 413 × 579 | 35 × 49 |
| Passport | 413 × 531 | 33 × 48 |
| China visa | 390 × 567 | 33 × 48 |
| US visa | 600 × 600 | 51 × 51 |
| Japan résumé | 354 × 472 | 30 × 40 |
Forms validate differently: some check pixels only, some check file size, some check both. Settle the pixels here first; if the portal still complains about weight, run the result through compress to 20 KB.
Head placement is the part people skip
Correct pixels with half a forehead missing is still a rejection. Most specs want the head to fill 60–70 percent of the frame height, with a small gap above the crown and the eyes around the upper third. The crop frame on this page draws an oval and an eye-level line as a guide — they never reach the output, they just show where the face belongs.
Three steps
- Drop in the original. A straight-on phone portrait is fine, ideally shot against a plain background with even light. Processing stays on your device.
- Pick a spec. The page starts at 1 inch, 295×413; tap another chip for 2 inch, passport or visa sizes.
- Move the frame, then crop. Drag the box over the head and shoulders, press crop, and the output lands on the pixels named on the chip.
Four reasons an ID photo gets rejected
- The source is too small. Cropping never enlarges: starting from a 200-pixel-wide picture cannot reach a 295-pixel target.
- The background is busy. This tool does not replace it — shoot against a wall or a plain cloth.
- The top of the head is cut off. Filling the whole frame with the face breaks the head-ratio rule.
- The file is over the cap. When the pixels are right but the weight is not, use compress to 20 KB or compress to 50 KB.
What this tool does not do
No face detection, no automatic framing, no background removal. It makes the size and the framing exact, predictable and private. If you need every pixel kept and no cropping at all, resize scales the full frame instead.
Frequently asked questions
What is the passport photo size in pixels and millimetres?+
413×531 pixels, which is 33×48 mm at 300 DPI. Many forms accept it as the default passport photo size, while a few countries ask for 2×2 inches, 600×600 pixels instead.
How much of the frame should the head fill?+
The usual rule is 60 to 70 percent of the image height, with a little space above the head. The crop frame here draws an oval and an eye-level line as a guide; move the picture until the face sits inside them.
How many pixels is a 1 inch or 2 inch ID photo?+
1 inch is 295×413 pixels (25×35 mm at 300 DPI) and 2 inch is 413×579 pixels (35×49 mm). Both chips sit next to the passport option, so one photo session can cover several forms.
Can it replace the background with blue or red?+
No. This tool only crops and pads; it does not detect a person and swap the backdrop. Background colours only apply when the photo's ratio differs from the target and padding is needed, so shoot against a plain wall.
Why is my output smaller than the size I typed?+
Your source was too small, or the frame already touched its edges. Cropping removes pixels and never invents them, so the output cannot exceed the original pixels the frame covers. Start from a full-resolution phone photo.
Can I process several passport photos at once?+
Yes. Drop them all in, choose one spec, and the whole batch is cropped to the same pixels in your browser. Download the results one by one, or take everything as a single ZIP.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?+
No. Decoding, cropping and encoding all happen in your browser. There is no upload step and no account, so the originals stay on your own device — which matters for passport and ID material.
