  • For Web Upload: Some online forms have strict file size limits (e.g. max 50KB). Use the "Web" option for smaller files.

This is the most common ID photo size in the world. Whether you are applying for a Schengen Visa, a UK Passport, a Swiss Residence Permit, or a New Zealand Visa, the requirement is almost always 3.5 cm width by 4.5 cm height.
