Getting a compliant baby passport photo takes a little preparation. Authorities require a plain background, a clearly visible face, and a neutral expression — even for infants.
Essential rules
- Plain light background (ideally white or very light grey)
- Face centered, eyes open and visible
- No hat, pacifier, or object in front of the face
- Even lighting without hard shadows
Practical tips
Pick a moment when your baby is rested. Place them on a light blanket or have an adult hold them out of frame. Photoverif checks compliance automatically so you avoid an administrative rejection.
