Russia Visa passport photo size & rules
Russian visa applications are submitted to a Russian consulate or an authorised Russian visa centre, often after completing the electronic visa application form on the consular website. The required photo size is 35x45mm, equal to 413x531 pixels at 300 dpi. The photograph must be recent, in colour, matte or glossy, and show a clear front view of the face for the Russia visa application form and supporting documents.
Russia visa photos require a plain white background with even lighting and no shadows. The face should be centred, looking straight at the camera, and occupy roughly 70% to 80% of the vertical frame from chin to crown. Keep a neutral expression with the mouth closed and both eyes open. Head coverings are only accepted for religious reasons and must not hide the facial oval, and glasses with tinted lenses or heavy glare should be removed. Photos must be sharp, correctly exposed, and free of borders or digital retouching that alters your appearance.
