Netherlands Passport Photo Maker - Fast & Compliant! (35 x 45 mm)

Selfies are usually rejected because they distort facial proportions and shoulders. It's best to have someone else take the photo from about 4 to 5 feet (1.5 meters) away at eye level, or use a tripod with a timer.

It is highly recommended to take your glasses off to reduce the risk of rejection. If you must wear them for medical reasons, ensure that the frames do not cover any part of your eyes and that there is no glare or reflection on the lenses.

For the sharpest results, we recommend uploading your photo in JPEG, JPG, or PNG format. These formats ensure that your facial details remain clear and that our automatic background removal works with maximum accuracy.

You don't need a professional studio setup! Just stand in a well-lit area and upload your photo. Our tool automatically detects your face, removes the original background, and replaces it with the exact official light grey required by the Dutch government.
