Passport Photo Maker — US, EU & UK Presets

Hermosso's Passport Photo maker is an online tool that turns an ordinary selfie into a compliant passport or ID photo in seconds for 50 credits: the AI removes whatever background your photo has, applies the regulation white backdrop and crops to the official document size. New accounts get 400 free credits, so your first eight passport photos are free.

Official presets

How to get a photo that passes

  1. Take a front-facing selfie — even daylight, a neutral expression, no heavy shadows and no glare on glasses gives the cleanest result.
  2. Upload and pick your preset — US 2×2in or EU/UK 35×45mm.
  3. Download the compliant photo — white background applied, cropped to size, ready to print or submit online.

When the passport photo maker is not the right tool

The tool applies the standard size and white background for the US, EU and UK formats, but every issuing authority has its own full specification — head size, recency, printing rules — and final acceptance always rests with them, so check the official requirement before submitting. If you do not need a document format at all and just want the subject cut out, the AI background remover gives you a transparent PNG instead.

FAQ

Can I take a passport photo with my phone?

Yes — a sharp, front-facing phone selfie in even light works well; upload it, pick your document preset and the tool handles the background and crop.

What background do passport photos need?

A plain light background — this tool applies the regulation white automatically, whatever background your selfie has.

What sizes are supported?

US passport and visa photos at 2×2 inches, and EU/UK passport and ID photos at 35×45 millimetres.

Is the photo guaranteed to be accepted?

The tool applies the standard size and white background for each format, but acceptance always rests with the issuing authority — check their full specification (head size, recency, expression rules) before submitting.

How much does it cost?

50 credits per photo; new accounts get 400 free credits. Plans start at $9/month — see pricing.
