- have a plain, light coloured background (e.g. white, cream or
pale blue) - show you looking directly at the camera
- show you with no hair across your eyes
- show both edges of your face clearly
- not show you looking over one shoulder (portrait style) or with
head tilted - photograph cannot be manipulated, for example, by removing spots or softening lines.
Glasses
If you usually wear glasses, you do not have to wear them for your passport photograph, but
if you do they must show your eyes clearly:
- no dark tinted lenses which restrict a clear view of your eyes
- no flash reflection off the lenses
- frames should not cover any part of your eyes
- lighter framed glasses are preferable if you have them.
Photos of children and babies should:
- show the child or baby awake, looking straight at the camera with mouth closed and no pacifier
- show the child or baby's face clearly without any other objects (including a parent's supporting hand) visible
- show the child or baby without any hair across the eyes.
The photos must be no more than six months old.
The following guidelines will help you provide suitable photographs so that your application is not delayed by having to submit new photographs in the required format.
For a new application, one of these photos must be endorsed on the back with the words "This is a true photo of (your full name)" and then signed by your guarantor.
