Guide to common reasons for Passport and Visa Photo rejection

• Wrong head size or physical dimension of photo - Please ensure you provide us with all the information for non UK passport photos or visas other than India or US.
• Excessive make up or jewellery - These can hide facial features, so try to look as natural as possible.
• Uniforms - Most countries will reject photos taken whilst wearing a uniform. Make sure you wear your day - to - day clothes, but look smart!
• Glasses - The IPS ( Identity and Passport Service) recommend taking glasses off. Rejections will happen if frames are too close to, or pass through the eye, and if there is any glare or reflections on the lenses. The photo will still be a good likeness of you.
• Wearing white - When the photo gets scanned by the IPS or by the country you wish to travel to, you could appear washed out and look to have a floating head. Wear something dark across your shoulders.
• Clothing covering the face - This is more common in children and babies. We recommend taking coats off to avoid this problem.
• Showing teeth or smiling - Both of these will again distort the face and could hide distinguishing features. You don't have to look miserable, just relax and look natural!
