Open the ID photo toolThe three standards explained

35 × 45 mm — the international standard

The most common size worldwide: the UK, Schengen countries, Japan, Korea, Australia, and more.

2 × 2 in (51 × 51 mm) — the square standard

A square photo used by the United States, India, and the Philippines.

50 × 70 mm — Canada only

Canada uses a unique format that can't be substituted with either other standard.

China — its own sizes

China uses 33 × 48 mm for passports plus separate one-inch (一寸) and two-inch (二寸) sizes for domestic IDs.

Sizes are references for cropping. Always confirm the exact requirement — background color, head height, file format, and maximum file size — on the official application before you submit.
