Czech Republic passport photo size & rules
The Czech Republic, a landlocked country in Central Europe bordering Germany, Poland, Austria, and Slovakia, requires a standardised photograph for every passport (cestovni pas) application. The photo must measure 35 millimetres wide by 45 millimetres tall, equal to 413 by 531 pixels at 300 DPI, in accordance with the ICAO biometric standard used throughout the European Union.
Czech passports are issued by the Ministry of the Interior (Ministerstvo vnitra), with applications processed at municipal offices of extended competence (obecni urad obce s rozsirenou pusobnosti). The photograph must show your full face with a neutral expression, mouth closed, and eyes open and clearly visible, set against a plain white or light grey background. Lighting must be even and free of shadows on the face and behind the head. Glasses should generally be removed, and head coverings are permitted only for documented religious or medical reasons.
You can prepare a compliant Czech passport photo entirely in your browser using this tool. Because all processing runs locally on your device, nothing is ever uploaded and your image stays completely private, and the service is free to use. Official requirements can change, so always verify the current rules with the Ministerstvo vnitra or your municipal office before submitting your passport application.
