Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. Cropping, resizing, and background replacement all happen in your browser using the Canvas API. Your photo never leaves your device.

Which sizes are included?

US passport/visa (2x2 in), a 35x45mm size used by the EU, UK, India, and many other countries, China visa/resident permit (33x48mm), Canada passport/PR card (50x70mm), a square 1x1 in badge photo, and a custom millimeter size for anything else.

How does the background color swap work?

The tool samples the color at the four corners of your cropped photo and replaces pixels close to that color with your chosen background. It works best when your original photo already has a plain, even-colored background.

What is the print sheet feature?

It tiles as many copies of your cropped photo as fit onto a standard 4x6 inch sheet at 300 DPI, so you can print multiple copies at once instead of one at a time.

Will this guarantee my photo is accepted by an agency?

The tool matches size, DPI, and background color, but acceptance also depends on lighting, expression, and print quality, which you should verify against the specific requirements of the agency you are applying to.

What image formats can I upload?

JPEG, PNG, and WebP are all supported. The downloaded photo and print sheet are exported as PNG files.

Summary

ID Photo Maker crops and resizes an uploaded photo to a common ID, passport, or visa size preset, from a 2x2 inch US passport photo to a 35x45mm EU-style passport photo. Drag to reposition, zoom to fit the face-height guide, and optionally swap a plain background for a different solid color. Once the crop is set, download a single photo at the correct pixel dimensions and DPI, or a tiled print sheet with multiple copies sized for a standard 4x6 inch photo print. Cropping, background replacement, and layout all happen on the canvas in your browser; nothing is uploaded to a server.
