Egypt passport photo size & rules
Egypt commonly uses a 40x60mm (4x6cm) photo format for passports and many visa procedures, equal to 472x709 pixels at 300 dpi. This tall 4x6 format is larger than the European 35x45mm standard, so a photo cut for a Schengen or UK application will not fit an Egyptian requirement. Egyptian passport and consular systems ask for the face to be centred and clearly shown within this frame, with the head taking up a substantial part of the height.
The background must be plain white and uniform, evenly lit with no shadow behind the head. Face the camera directly with a neutral expression and mouth closed, both eyes open and clearly visible, and the head straight and uncovered. Egypt asks that glasses be removed where possible to avoid glare, and hats or head coverings are not permitted except for religious reasons, provided the full face from the chin to the top of the forehead remains visible. The photo must be recent, in sharp colour, and reflect your current appearance.
Pixohub sizes your Egyptian passport or visa photo to the 40x60mm / 472x709 pixel format on a white background directly in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and your image stays private on your own device, and the tool is free. Requirements from Egyptian passport authorities and consulates are updated over time and can differ by procedure and by whether you apply in Egypt or abroad. Always confirm the current official specifications with the relevant Egyptian authority or your nearest consulate before printing or submitting your photo.
