Passport & Visa Photo Requirements
4 passport-size photos

The following is the list of regulations regarding passport-style photographs
Four (4) 2 x 2 inches in size, taken within the past 6 months.
The image size from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head should be between 1 inch and 1 3/8 inches.
The photographs may be in color or black and white.
They must be full face, front view with a plain white or off-white background.
Photographs should be taken in normal street attire, without a hat or headgear that obscures the hair or hairline.
Uniforms should not be worn in photographs.
If  a hearing device, wig or similar articles are normally and consistently worn, they should be worn when the picture is taken.
If you choose to submit digitized photos, they must meet the same requirements of all passport photographs. In addition, digitized photographs are always produced on digital printers. Some printers will produce a photograph in which the dots are seen. Visible dots distort the image by making it look grainy. Acceptable photos have a continuous tone image that looks very photo-like.

Vending Machine photos are NOT acceptable.
Homemade Digital Photographs are not acceptable.
