Guide to Wearing Necklaces in Passport Photos: Types and Rules

A necklace, also known as a chain, is a piece of jewelry worn around the neck and resting on the chest.

Types of Necklaces

There are various types of necklaces:

• Beaded necklace: a chain with beads of uniform size and color.
• Multiple bead strands: multiple strands of different lengths strung together.
• Graduated beads: a necklace with beads of varying thickness, with larger beads in the center and at the bottom.
• Entwined strands: simple beaded chains intertwined together.

Rules for Necklaces on Passport Photos

A necklace is not specifically mentioned in passport photo requirements, so it is allowed to wear one on your passport photo. However, it's important to ensure that the necklace doesn't reflect light, as well as other jewelry such as earrings, piercings, or headbands.
