Private document-photo preparation
Passport Photo Maker
A passport photo workflow has two different jobs: format the image accurately and verify the authority’s current capture rules. MAXScanner handles the crop/output geometry locally; it does not claim that one 35×45 mm preset is accepted by every country.
Passport Photo Maker
Create a print-ready photo with exact dimensions, DPI and a safe crop. Requirements vary by authority.
What this preset produces
35 × 45 mm corresponds to about 413 × 531 px at 300 pixels per inch. Use that geometry only when it matches the destination specification.
- • Prepare a 35×45 mm starting copy for authorities that publish that size.
- • Create the pixel dimensions equivalent to 35×45 mm at 300 pixels per inch.
- • Make a clean JPEG delivery copy without face reshaping or beauty filters.
Check the authority, not a generic template
- • Confirm the country and document type before using a preset.
- • Check head position, expression, eyewear, lighting and background against the official instructions.
- • Verify the final pixel dimensions, file type and byte limit on the actual submission portal.

Frequently asked questions
Is 35×45 mm the passport photo size for every country?
No. Many authorities use 35×45 mm, but others use different dimensions such as a square format. Always use the current specification for the passport or document you are applying for.
Does MAXScanner guarantee passport-photo acceptance?
No. It formats measurable image properties, but the authority decides acceptance and can enforce visual and biometric rules that a browser tool cannot certify.
What does 35×45 mm at 300 DPI mean in pixels?
It is approximately 413×531 pixels. Those pixel dimensions are useful for a print-density target; the receiving authority remains the source of truth.
Does the tool reshape my face?
No. The workflow crops and resizes the source image without beauty filters or facial reshaping.
