Printing Your Photo

Print on glossy or matte photo paper at 300 DPI minimum. Most home inkjet printers produce sufficient quality at this resolution. 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 Light blue background for passport; white for visa and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your Visa Photo

Sri Lankan passport photos require a light blue background, which is different from most countries. Ensure you select the correct background color.

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