Questions and answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the official Pakistan passport and NADRA CNIC photo size in mm and pixels?

Official DGIP Pakistan Machine Readable Passports (MRP) and NADRA Pak-ID applications use the 35 × 45 mm biometric standard, which equals 413 × 531 pixels at 300 DPI.

Should a Pakistan passport photo have a white or blue background?

For DGIP Online e-Passport renewal portals, NADRA Pak-ID mobile/web uploads, and visa applications, a plain white background is required. Some regional passport counters still accept light blue backgrounds for physical paper forms, but white is universally accepted across all online portals.

What is the maximum file size for DGIP e-Services and NADRA Pak-ID photo uploads?

DGIP and NADRA online portals typically require JPEG images under 1 MB (and certain public service commission portals like FPSC/PPSC require under 30 KB or 50 KB). You can pair this tool with our Compress to 50KB or Compress to 20KB utility if needed.

Are eyeglasses or headwear allowed in a Pakistan biometric passport photo?

Eyeglasses should be removed to prevent flash reflection on the lenses. Religious headwear (such as a hijab or cap) is permitted provided the entire facial oval from the bottom of the chin to the top of the forehead and both cheekbones remain unobstructed.

Does this tool automatically change my photo background to white?

This tool crops and scales your portrait to exact 35 × 45 mm (413 × 531 px) biometric dimensions. If your photo was taken against a colored wall, run our Change Background tool first to set a solid white backdrop.

Are my Pakistan passport or CNIC photos stored on your servers?

No. Your photo is processed over an encrypted HTTPS connection in isolated session memory and automatically deleted within 30 minutes.
