About this photo

Applying through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Brazil (Embassy in Dublin)? The Brazilian Passport photo it wants measures 30 by 40 mm. One colour photo, 3 x 4 or 5 x 7, recent. A white background is accepted, as long as it is uniform and without pattern. If you apply online (SCEDV electronic form (Embassy of Brazil, Dublin)), the file must be as a JPEG. Your head, chin to crown, should measure 28.0 to 32.0 mm on the print. A photo taken at home with a phone is fine provided it meets these rules; ask someone else to take it at eye level. The Brazilian Passport photo comes back sized, with a clean background and a head-size check, before you are asked to pay.
