Compliance Thresholds

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

Head Height

63% – 78% of image height

Printing Your Photo

Matte photo paper, 35x45mm. Face should occupy 70-80% of the frame. Cut the photo to exactly 30 x 40 mm (1.2" x 1.6") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 10 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 Visa 30x40mm Photo

Russia has separate internal and international passports. Internal passport photos are the same 35x45mm size. Both can be taken at Gosuslugi (government services) offices or approved photo studios.

Attach printed Visa 30x40mm photos securely to your visa application form. Some Russia 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.

Common Rejection Reasons

  • Sunglasses or tinted lenses
  • Colored background
  • Face too small in frame
  • Heavy makeup or accessories
  • Head too small (under 63%) or too large (over 78%) relative to photo height
  • Photo not cut to exact 30 x 40 mm dimensions
  • Non-neutral facial expression or wide smile
  • Shadows on face from poor lighting
  • Red-eye or flash glare on face or glasses
  • Head tilted or turned away from camera

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