Hungary passport photo size & rules

Hungary, a landlocked country in Central Europe within the Carpathian Basin, bordering seven nations and traversed by the Danube, requires a standardised photograph for every passport (utlevel) application. The photo must be 35 millimetres wide by 45 millimetres tall, equal to 413 by 531 pixels at 300 DPI, matching the ICAO biometric standard used across the European Union.

Hungarian passports are issued under the authority of the Ministry of Interior, with applications handled through government offices (kormanyablak) and district offices. The photograph must show your full face with a neutral expression, mouth closed, and eyes open and clearly visible, taken against a plain white or light grey background. Lighting must be even so that no shadows fall on the face or behind the head. Glasses are best avoided to prevent glare, and head coverings are accepted only for religious reasons provided the full face remains visible.

You can create a compliant Hungarian passport photo entirely in your browser with this tool. All processing runs locally on your own device, meaning nothing is uploaded and your photo remains fully private, and the tool is completely free. Because official photo rules can change, always verify the current requirements with the relevant Hungarian government office (kormanyablak) before submitting your passport application.
