Compliance Thresholds

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

Head Height

61% – 76% of image height

Printing Your Photo

Matte photo paper, 33x48mm. Head must be 28-33mm high and 15-22mm wide. Cut the photo to exactly 33 x 48 mm (1.3" x 1.9") — 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 and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your ID Card 33x48mm Photo

Chinese passport renewal can be done at Exit-Entry Administration offices. Many photo studios near these offices specialize in compliant photos.

China ID Card 33x48mm photos are typically submitted in person at a government office. Staff may photograph you on-site, but bringing a printed photo prepared to spec can speed up the process.

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

  • Earrings or piercings visible
  • Ears covered by hair
  • Background not pure white
  • Glasses worn
  • Excessive retouching or filters
  • Head too small (under 61%) or too large (over 76%) relative to photo height
