Frequently asked questions

What size is an Australia passport photo?
35×45mm, with the face height between 32mm and 36mm from chin to crown.
What are the Australia passport photo requirements?
A plain white or light grey background, neutral expression, no glasses, and the photo must be taken within the last 6 months.
Can I take my own passport photo at home for Australia?
Yes - as long as it meets all official size and background requirements. Use even lighting and a plain wall, then upload it here to crop and resize it correctly. Note that for a paper application, you'll still need someone eligible to certify a printed copy (see below).
Who can sign or certify a passport photo in Australia?
An eligible guarantor - such as a doctor, teacher, police officer, or other approved professional who has known you for at least 12 months - must sign the back of one printed photo to confirm it's a true likeness of you.
What do you write on the back of a passport photo in Australia?
Your guarantor writes and signs a statement confirming the photo is a true likeness of you, along with their name, occupation, and contact details, as instructed on your application form.
What should you wear for a passport photo in Australia?
Wear normal, everyday clothing in a color that contrasts with the background. Avoid uniforms and avoid white clothing that blends into the background.
How do you take a baby's passport photo in Australia?
The same size and background rules apply, but babies don't need a neutral expression and can have their eyes closed if needed. Someone can support the baby from behind as long as they're not visible in the photo.
