What Colors Are Not Allowed for Passport Photos?

Certain colors are best avoided for passport photos:

• White or Light Colors: White or very light colors can blend in with the typically required white or light background, causing a lack of contrast.
• Bright and Fluorescent Colors: Overly bright or neon colors can be distracting and may affect the photo's neutrality.
• Uniforms or Camouflage: Clothing that resembles a uniform, military attire, or camouflage should not be worn, as they can be mistaken for official attire.
• Colors Matching Background: Any color that closely matches the background of the photo should be avoided to ensure clear distinction between the subject and the backdrop.

The focus of a passport photo should be on presenting a clear, accurate , and neutral image of the individual. Neutral and darker colors are generally recommended to achieve this.
