About the Schengen Visa Photo Tool

Schengen visa applications for the EU require a 35×45 mm photo — 413×531 pixels at 300 DPI — taken recently against a light grey or white background, with the face filling roughly 70–80% of the frame. This tool center-crops and resizes your photo to exactly 413×531 in your browser. Shoot against a plain, evenly-lit wall first; this tool sizes and crops, it does not replace the background or use AI.
