Japan Passport Photo (35×45 mm)

Size your photo to Japan’s 35×45 mm passport format — with a head-position guide, plain background and printable sheet — entirely in your browser.

Privacy-first: every image is processed locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, stored or transmitted to any server.

35×45 mm without the booth

Japan’s passport photo is 35×45 mm, matching the European footprint. Choosing the Japan preset locks the frame to that ratio and exports 413×531 px at 300 DPI or 827×1063 px at 600 DPI. Japanese requirements are strict about how much of the frame the head occupies, so use the head-guide oval and eye line as your reference and check the current Ministry of Foreign Affairs guidance for the exact measurements before submitting.

Print at a convenience store

Export the 4×6 inch sheet and the photo tiles into copies with cut lines — convenient for the photo printers in Japanese convenience stores, which print L-size and 4×6 prints directly from a file. Or download a single high-resolution image for an online submission. All of it runs on your own device; nothing is uploaded, and there is no per-photo charge.

Frequently asked questions

Is my photo uploaded to make the passport photo?
No. Everything — cropping, sizing, the background and the print sheet — is done locally in your browser with the Canvas API. Your photo never leaves your device.
Which passport and ID sizes are supported?
US passport/visa (2×2 in), EU/Schengen (35×45 mm), UK, India, China visa (33×48 mm), Canada, Australia, Japan and a generic ID size — plus any custom size you enter in millimeters. Each is exported at 300 or 600 DPI.
How do I position the head correctly?
A head-position guide (an oval with eye and center lines) is overlaid on the frame. Drag your photo to move it and scroll to zoom until the head and eyes sit inside the guide, matching official requirements.
Can I get a printable sheet?
Yes. Choose the 4×6 inch or A4 sheet option and PixelVault tiles as many copies as fit, with thin cut lines, so you can print them at home or at a photo kiosk and cut them out.
How do I get a plain white background?
Pick White (or any color) and it fills behind your photo. For a clean cut-out from a busy background, run your photo through the Remove Background tool first, then bring the transparent result here.
