Compliance Thresholds

These are the official measurements your photo must meet to avoid rejection:

Head Height

70% – 85% of image height

Printing Your Photo

Glossy or matte photo paper, 50x70mm for passport. ID Card (RG) uses 30x40mm format. Cut the photo to exactly 18 x 23 mm (0.7" x 0.9") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 32 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 plain white and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your Passport 18x23mm Photo

Brazilian passports require the 50x70mm format (larger than European standard). The ID Card (RG) uses the smaller 30x40mm format. Policia Federal offices accept digital photos uploaded through the online appointment system.

Brazil 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 6 months.

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

Common Rejection Reasons

  • Photo older than 6 months
  • Shadows on background
  • Face not centered in frame
  • Digital alterations detected
  • Wrong photo size (passport requires 50x70mm)
  • Head too small (under 70%) or too large (over 85%) relative to photo height
  • Non-neutral facial expression or wide smile
  • Red-eye or flash glare on face or glasses
  • Head tilted or turned away from camera
  • Eyes closed or partially closed

If your photo is rejected, most authorities allow resubmission with a corrected photo at no additional charge.
