Crop a UK passport photo to 35mm x 45mm with head-height guides.
Direct answer: UK printed passport photos must measure 35mm wide by 45mm high, with the image of the head between 29mm and 34mm high. This tool opens on the UK passport preset and exports a single image or an 8-photo 4x6 sheet.
Take a forward-facing photo against a plain white/light background. 100% private — processed locally on your device.
Printed photo dimensions from HM Passport Office guidance.
Measured from crown to chin.
Print at 100% scale and trim carefully.
Quality check: Use a recent, sharp, front-facing photo with even lighting, eyes open, neutral expression, and no harsh shadows.
Background check: Use the background color listed by the destination agency. White or off-white is common, but not universal.
Acceptance limit: This tool crops, resizes, and exports images. It cannot guarantee government or portal acceptance, and it cannot verify identity, biometric acceptability, image recency, photographer-stamp rules, or final portal acceptance.
Printing: Print 4x6 sheets at 100% actual size with no border and no fit-to-page scaling, then measure the final photo before cutting.
