IndiaのPassport 51x51mm写真

Matte finish photo paper. Indian passport size photo is 35x45mm (3.5 x 4.5 cm). Face should occupy 50-60% of photo. The same passport size photo format (35x45mm) is widely accepted for PAN card applications, competitive exam forms (UPSC, SSC, bank PO), and other government document submissions.. Cut the photo to exactly 51 x 51 mm (2.0" x 2.0") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 2 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 and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

India uses a 35x45mm (3.5 x 4.5 cm) passport size photo — the standard ICAO rectangular format, also accepted by Passport Seva (Ministry of External Affairs online portal) with white/light background and face occupying 50-60% of the frame. The same passport size photo is widely reused for PAN card, competitive exam applications, and most government forms. For US visa applications from India, the 51x51mm (2x2 inch) format is required instead.

India passport applications typically require you to submit printed photos with your application form at a passport office, post office, or consulate. Bring 2 copies unless the application form specifies otherwise.

Photo recency requirement: Must be taken within the last 3 months (stricter than most countries).

For the most current requirements, refer to the official government source before submitting.
