Specifics of Cropping in Passport Photos: Meeting Government Regulations and Standards

An image crop is a photo that captures only a portion of a larger photo.

Often, an image crop is used when the original photo cannot be zoomed in enough.

Requirements for the Crop of a Passport Photo

In a passport photo, the crop of the face is made according to specific dimensions. Both the physical print size and the digital photo size are regulated by the government.

For adults, the face width in the photo should be between 123 and 123 inches, and the height should be between 1 and 1.4 inches.
