Engineered for strict Biometric Identification Standards used by the USA, India, and Israel. This utility facilitates the precise conversion of raw images into the 51x51 mm (2x2 inch) format, managing the critical Aspect Ratio (1:1) and Pixel Density (DPI) adjustments required for official documentation.
Automated biometric systems (such as those used by the US Department of State and VFS Global) utilize strict algorithms to verify photos. Minor deviations in dimension or lighting often lead to "Quality Check Failed" errors.
The most common failure point is the facial proportion. In a 2x2 inch photo, the head must occupy between 50% and 69% of the image's total height. If the face is too close (zoom) or too far (wide-angle), the biometric facial recognition software cannot map the nodal points of the face.
Uneven illumination resulting in "drop shadows" behind the ears or on one side of the face is unacceptable. Our tool helps you crop out peripheral shadows, but ensure your source image uses soft, frontal lighting (e.g., facing a window).
Technically, pixels and inches are different. However, for digital uploads (like US Visa), 600x600 pixels is the requirement. For printing, 600x600 pixels printed at 300 DPI equals exactly 2x2 inches. Our tool handles this conversion for you.
Yes. The Indian OCI and Visa system follows the exact same 51mm x 51mm (2x2 inch) square standard as the USA. You can safely use the "India Visa" or "US Passport" preset.
The US Department of State's CEAC system has a hard limit of 240KB for photo uploads. Files larger than this will fail to upload. Our tool's compression feature allows you to target this specific limit.
