DGIP passport photo size: 350 x 467 pixels
For Pakistan online passport applications, the photo is not just a normal passport-size print. DGIP lists a specific digital photo size, format, background, and file-size limit.
Official source
Checked against DGI&P e-Services guidance
We checked the Directorate General of Immigration & Passports e-Services page on June 5, 2026. It lists the Pakistan online passport photo as a recent color picture with a white background, 350/467 pixels, JPEG/JPG format, and not more than 3MB.
DGIP online passport photo requirements
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Digital dimensions | 350 x 467 pixels |
| File format | JPEG / JPG |
| Maximum size | Not more than 3MB |
| Background | White background |
| Photo type | Recent color picture |
These are the technical requirements Kodotools can help with. The photo still needs good lighting, a centered face, a neutral expression, and a clean passport-style background.
How Kodotools matches the DGIP settings
| DGIP requirement | Kodotools setting |
|---|---|
| 350 x 467 pixels | The Pakistan online preset exports the final photo at exactly 350 x 467 px. |
| JPEG / JPG | The download button exports JPG automatically, so users do not accidentally submit PNG or WebP. |
| Not more than 3MB | The target size is set to under 3MB for the Pakistan online preset. |
| White background | The background fill defaults to white, with off-white and light grey options for preview/print contexts. |
| Recent color picture | Kodotools cannot verify recency, lighting, or expression; the tool only handles size, format, crop, and export. |

The passport photo maker starts with a simple upload step, then shows the Pakistan preset before crop. That keeps the requirement visible before the user downloads anything.
350 x 467 pixels vs 35 x 45 mm
Printed passport photos are often described in millimeters, such as 35 x 45 mm. Online passport uploads use pixels because the portal receives a digital file.
For DGIP online submission, prepare the digital image at 350 x 467 pixels. If you also need printed copies, use the crop preview as a confidence check, then confirm print sizing with your photo shop.
Why head position matters
Most rejected DIY passport photos are not rejected because of pixels. They are rejected because the face is too large, too small, tilted, shadowed, or badly centered.
In the Kodotools cropper, use the guide bands as a practical visual aid: keep the top of the head near the upper band, keep the chin near the lower band, and leave enough shoulder area so the photo does not look like a tight selfie crop.
Step-by-step: make a DGIP passport photo
- Take a proper photo first. Use a plain white background, even lighting, and a front-facing pose.
- Open the Pakistan passport photo maker. The correct 350 x 467 px preset is already selected.
- Upload the photo. JPG, PNG, WebP, and iPhone HEIC files are supported.
- Drag and zoom. Align the head and shoulders using the visible guide overlay.
- Download the JPG. The final file is 350 x 467 pixels and should be far below 3MB.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Cropping only the face: keep shoulders visible.
- Using a busy background: start with a clean white background.
- Leaving glasses on: reflections or covered eyes can cause problems.
- Compressing a huge image first: crop to 350 x 467 pixels before worrying about file size.
- Using PNG output: JPG/JPEG is the safer format for the DGIP upload requirement.
