Need a passport or visa photo fast? This step-by-step guide shows you how to remove the background, set a clean white backdrop, and resize your picture to the exact required dimensions—totally free and without watermarks.
What you’ll need
- A well-lit photo taken against any plain wall (avoid harsh shadows)
- Face forward, neutral expression, no heavy filters
- Enough space around your head and shoulders (don’t crop too tight)
Step 1 — Remove the background (free)
- Open RealRevi Passport Photo.
- Upload your picture. The background is removed automatically.
- Select White background (standard for most passport photos).
Tip: If your hair edges look soft, re-upload a slightly higher-resolution image for crisper cut-outs.
Step 2 — Choose the correct size for your country
On the same page, pick a preset (e.g., US 2×2 in, UK 35×45 mm, EU 35×45 mm, India 51×51 mm, etc.). RealRevi automatically resizes and centers the face area.
- USA: 2 × 2 inches (600 × 600 px recommended)
- UK/EU: 35 × 45 mm (~ 413 × 531 px)
- India: 51 × 51 mm (~ 600 × 600 px)
- Pakistan: 35 × 45 mm
Step 3 — Ensure head/eye position & download
Keep your head centered with a neutral expression and plain clothing. Most guidelines require eyes open, no heavy shadows, and no accessories that obscure facial features.
