Foto de Visa de Germany

Biometric standard (ISO/IEC 19794-5). Matte or semi-gloss paper. Face height 32-36mm from chin to top of head. Cut the photo to exactly 35 x 45 mm (1.4" x 1.8") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 8 photos at this size — a cost-effective option at any photo kiosk or home printer. Leave a small margin between cuts.

The background must be Light grey background (uniform, no patterns) and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Germany follows strict biometric standards. Since 2025, German passport photos must be taken digitally at the Burgeramt (citizens office) or approved studios.

Attach printed Visa photos securely to your visa application form. Some Germany consulates require photos to be affixed with adhesive on the back — avoid staples which can damage the print.

Photo recency requirement: Must be taken within the last 6 months.
