Printing Your Photo

Glossy photo paper. Blue background for CNIC/NICOP, white for passport. 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 Blue background for CNIC; white for passport and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your Passport Photo

NADRA requires blue background photos for CNIC and NICOP, while the Directorate General of Immigration requires white background for passports. Make sure you use the correct background.

Pakistan 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.

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