Frequently asked questions
What size is a israel passport photo?
35×45 mm, which is 827×1063 pixels at 600 DPI. The head should measure 32–36 mm from chin to crown.
What background does a israel passport photo need?
A plain white or light grey, no shadow, evenly lit with no shadows or objects behind you. The built-in checker flags a non-uniform or wrong-coloured background.
What file format and size should it be?
JPEG. This tool exports exactly to spec and embeds 600 DPI so print size is correct.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Every step — cropping, the compliance check and the export — runs on your own device using your browser's canvas. Your photo is never sent anywhere, which matters for a document photo.
Does this guarantee my photo will be accepted?
No tool can guarantee acceptance — the issuing authority decides. This editor produces the correct dimensions and catches common, detectable mistakes (background, exposure, head position), but always confirm against the official Israel Population and Immigration Authority (gov.il) requirements linked on this page.
