How to make a compliant poland passport / id photo
A poland passport / id photo must be 35×45 mm, that is 781×1005 pixels at 567 DPI, on a plain white, evenly lit, no shadows. The editor above handles the cropping, sizing and checking for you, and every step runs on your own device:
- Add your photo. Click the frame or drop in a clear, front-facing shot with a neutral expression, both eyes open and nothing covering the face. The image never leaves your browser.
- Position the head. Drag and zoom until the face sits inside the on-screen guides, centred, level and looking straight at the camera.
- Check the background. Use a plain white, evenly lit, no shadows that is evenly lit and free of shadows; the built-in checker flags a wrong-coloured or uneven background and poor exposure before you export.
- Export to spec. Download as JPEG, kept under 2560 KB, sized to 781×1005 px with 567 DPI embedded so it prints at the correct physical size.
These requirements are set by gov.pl (Ministerstwo Cyfryzacji / MSWiA) and can change over time, always confirm against the official source linked below before you submit your application.
