Download your visa photo immediately — no waiting for prints, no courier, no appointment.
Automated checks on format, dimensions, head size and background before you pay.
No professional camera required. A well-lit phone photo against a plain background is all you need — just have someone else take it, or prop your phone up.
If your photo is rejected by the embassy, contact us and we'll review and reprocess at no extra charge.
Digital visa photos cost far less than a studio visit. No hidden fees, no subscription.
Yes — the US requires 51×51mm (2×2 inch), while most European countries and Ireland use 35×45mm. PhotoPass ID knows each country's specification and applies it automatically.
Only if the countries share the same format. For example, an Irish passport photo and a Schengen visa photo both use 35×45mm and can often use the same image. US visa photos require a different size entirely.
Most embassies require a photo taken within the last 6 months. Always use a recent photo that accurately reflects your current appearance.
Most countries now advise against glasses in passport and visa photos. The US, UK, and Ireland all specify no glasses. PhotoPass ID will flag this if it detects glasses in your image.
Contact us at orders@photopass.ie with the rejection reason. We'll review your photo and reprocess if there's a valid compliance issue.
PhotoPass ID is an independent service. Official visa requirements can change — always verify with the relevant embassy or consular authority before submitting your application.
