What size is a U.S. visa photo?

2×2 inches (51×51 mm) when printed. For the online visa application, a square JPEG of 600×600 to 1200×1200 pixels, 240 kB or less.

Can I wear glasses in a visa photo?

No. Glasses are not allowed in U.S. visa or passport photos, and the check flags them.

Do you make photos for other countries' visas?

Not yet. We make U.S. passport and U.S. visa photos only. Other countries use different photo sizes and rules.
