Source photo requirements

Use a clear source photo before generating this passport size. The best source image has one person facing the camera, visible hair, neck, both shoulders, and enough margin around the head for the final crop.

  • Use good lighting and a sharp, recent photo.
  • Avoid sunglasses, masks, heavy filters, face-covering hats, glare, or side-face poses.
  • Do not use group photos or close selfies where the head or shoulders touch the image edge.

Rules and editing risk

Neutral expression, eyes open, looking straight at the camera, mouth closed.

Avoid glare and frames over eyes; tinted glasses are not acceptable.

Allowed only for religious or medical reasons; full face must be visible.

Canadian guidance rejects altered photos, including AI, filters, background changes, and facial edits.

AI / software risk: This authority restricts or rejects software-modified photos. Treat AI output as a sizing preview unless the receiving office explicitly accepts edited images.
