About this photo

Cayman Islands Passport photos are printed at 35 by 45 mm, the size the Passport and Corporate Services Office (Cayman Islands); printed by HM Passport Office works with. Applications are made with printed photos, so you need a physical copy rather than an upload. The background must be plain light grey or cream or off-white, evenly lit and free of shadows. 35 x 45 mm, head 29-34 mm chin to crown. Your head, chin to crown, should measure 29 to 34 mm on the print. You can take it at home on a phone: have someone stand a couple of metres away at eye level rather than holding the phone yourself. We make the Cayman Islands Passport photo to this specification from your own picture and show you the result before you pay.
