Sri Lanka passport photo size & rules
A Sri Lanka passport photo is submitted to the Department of Immigration and Emigration, the authority that issues passports to Sri Lankan citizens. The standard size is 35mm wide by 45mm high, taken as a recent front-facing colour photograph. Applicants should face the camera squarely with the head centred, and the face should be large enough that the distance from chin to crown falls in the region of 32mm to 36mm, giving officials a clear, well-proportioned image for identity checks.
As Sri Lankan passports are widely used for employment abroad, pilgrimage, and general travel, the submitted photo must meet clear and consistent standards. A plain white background is required, evenly illuminated and free of shadows behind the head. The expression should be neutral with the mouth closed and both eyes open and unobstructed, and hair should be kept clear of the eyes. Reflective or tinted glasses should be avoided, and head coverings are accepted only when worn for genuine religious reasons and only if the full face remains clearly visible.
Pixohub prepares your Sri Lanka passport photo entirely within your browser, with nothing uploaded to any server, so your picture stays private on your own device, and the tool is completely free. Because official rules can be revised, always confirm the latest requirements with the Department of Immigration and Emigration before you print the photo or submit it with your passport application.
