About this photo

For a UK Visa, UK Visas and Immigration follows the same photo standard as British passports. When you supply a digital photo, the file should be a JPEG of at least 600 by 750 pixels, between 50 KB and 6 MB, upright and not mirrored, and printed copies measure 35 by 45 mm. A light grey, cream or white background works, with even light and no shadows. Face the camera, keep your head straight and do not use filters. Clear prescription glasses are allowed if they do not cover your eyes.
