Printing Your Photo

High-quality photo paper, face must occupy 70-80% of the frame. 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 White or very light grey background and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your Visa Photo

Attach printed Visa photos securely to your visa application form. Some Italy 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.

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