How to take perfect passport photo at home by just using your phone
-
1. Maintain proper distance
Position your front-facing camera 16–20 inches (40–50 cm) from your face. If you're using the rear camera, stand about 4–6 feet (1–2 meters) away for the best framing.
-
2. Keep your head and body straight
Face the camera directly without tilting your head or shoulders. Avoid using portrait mode, as it’s not suitable for passport photos.
-
3. Prepare good lighting
Take your photo in natural daylight, preferably near a window on a bright day. Make sure there are no shadows on your face or in the background.
