About this photo

Moldovan Passport photos are printed at 35 by 45 mm, the size the Public Services Agency works with. There is no upload step: the photo is handed in as a print with the paper application. A white or light grey or off-white background is accepted, as long as it is uniform and without pattern. Home photos are accepted when they follow the rules, so a well-lit phone picture taken by someone else works. Neutral expression, both eyes open, mouth closed. Head height from chin to crown is 32 to 36 mm. We make the Moldovan Passport photo to this specification from your own picture and show you the result before you pay.
