What we check
- Dimensions, head height, and eye line for your country’s exact spec.
- Background color, evenness, and shadows.
- Expression — neutral face, mouth closed, both eyes open.
- Glasses, headwear, jewelry, and other accessories.
- Clothing, and whether more than one person is in the frame.
- 300+ rules in total, matched to your specific document.
See the result before you pay
The check is free. Upload a photo and you’ll see, rule by rule, what passes and what doesn’t — no account required. We also crop, center, and replace the background to bring the photo to spec, and you only pay when you download the finished, ready-to-submit file or order prints.
And a real person double-checks it
Beyond the automatic checks, a passport-photo specialist reviews every order by hand, usually within minutes. If your photo is ever rejected by the issuing authority for a reason within our control, you get a full refund.
Three steps, a few minutes.

Frequently asked
Is the passport photo checker free?
Yes — running the check and seeing what passes is free, with no account required. You only pay to download the finished, corrected photo or to order prints.
What does the checker look at?
More than 300 rules for your specific country and document: size, head height and position, background color and shadows, expression, glasses, headwear, accessories, clothing, and more.
Does it just flag problems, or fix them?
Both. It tells you what fails, and it also crops, centers, resizes, and replaces the background to bring the photo to spec — then a real specialist reviews the result.
What if my photo can’t pass?
We tell you right away and exactly what to change, so you can retake and check again for free before paying anything.
