Make sure your photo has been taken within the last 6 months
Your photos must be taken no more than 6 months before the date you submit your application.
Canadians living in the United States and abroad
Our requirements for passport photos are different from those in the United States and other countries. Photos for Canadian passports must be taken in person by a commercial photographer or studio. They must also comply with all of our photo requirements. If they don’t, we will reject your application.
Bring the Passport photo specifications to the photographer or studio to make sure they meet the correct photo requirements.
You must submit 2 identical and unaltered photos with each passport application.
Photo requirements
Your passport photos must be:
clear, sharp and in focus
taken with a neutral facial expression
eyes open and clearly visible
mouth closed, no smiling
taken in person by a commercial photographer or studio with:
uniform lighting and with no shadows, glare or flash reflections
face and shoulders to the camera: straight-on, centered and squared
a plain white or light-coloured background with a clear difference between your face and the background. Photos must reflect/represent natural skin tones.
50 mm wide X 70 mm high (2 inches wide X 2- 3/4 inches long)
the height of the face measures between 31 mm (1- 1/4 inches) and 36 mm (1- 7/16 inches) from chin to crown of head (natural top of head)
an image of your current appearance, taken within the last six months
professionally printed on plain, high quality photographic paper
we don’t accept photos printed at home and photos printed on heavy weight paper
original photos that are not altered in any way or taken from an existing photo
What is an altered photo?
An altered photo refers to any photo that has been edited or changed in any way, by any means, and includes:
technical corrections or enhancements, such as:
adjustments to colour, brightness, contrast or sharpness
cropping around the subject’s head and shoulders, including:
cutting and pasting the subject against a white background
editing of the facial features, such as:
changing size or shape of eyes, nose, mouth or ears
editing to improve the appearance of the subject, such as:
removing glare
removing red-eye
changing hair colour
eliminating wrinkles, blemishes or birthmarks
editing the subject’s clothing, including changing colours
changing the background, including eliminating shadows
Back of photo details
On the back of 1 photo
the photographer must put a stamp or written information showing the
date the photo was taken
name and complete address of the photo studio
your guarantor must
clearly write "I certify this to be a true likeness of (applicant's or child’s name)" for an application
sign the back of the photo
If you’re renewing an adult passport using the Simplified Renewal application form, you don’t need a guarantor.
Extra details
We accept photos with:
glasses worn if:
your eyes are clearly visible
there is no glare on the lenses
hair down or up
hats and head coverings worn daily for religious beliefs or medical reasons if:
your full face is clearly visible
the head covering doesn’t cast shadows on your face
Photos may be in colour or in black and white
We don’t accept photos with:
sunglasses or tinted eye glasses (even when the eyes are clearly visible)
red-eye effect or red-eye alterations
hats and head coverings not worn daily for religious beliefs or medical reasons
shadows, as lighting must be uniform to avoid shadows:
around the ears
in the background
across the face or shoulders
Child photos
Child photos must follow the same rules as standard passport photos. They must show your child's head and shoulders only. Parent's or child's hands must not appear in the photo.
For newborn babies, the photo may be taken while your child is sitting in a car seat, as long as:
a white blanket is placed over the seat behind their head
there are no shadows:
around the ears
in the background
on the face or shoulders
you write “I certify this to be a true likeness of (child’s name)” and sign the back
We recognize the difficulty in getting a neutral expression from your newborn. We do allow some range for infant facial expressions.
Examples of acceptable passport photos
These photos don’t represent the actual size of a passport photo.
Tips for taking a good passport photo
If you’re in a wheelchair
Passport photos must be taken against a plain white background. If your wheelchair has a headrest, a plain white covering should be placed over it. This makes your facial features and the edges of your face clear against the background.
If you have headwear or nasal cannula
Your headwear or a nasal cannula may appear in a passport photo if worn for medical reasons. Your eyes must remain clearly visible. Include a signed explanation with your application. We may ask for a letter from your doctor.
Why can’t I smile in my passport photo?
The International Civil Aviation Organization recommends that passport photos be taken with a neutral expression. This lets us use facial recognition systems to help prevent fraud. They electronically verify identity based on each person's unique facial features.
