    Drawn to scale. The red lines show the allowed head size, measured from the bottom of the chin to the top of the hair.

    You still need printed photos for the paper parts of the process, such as attesting the application, and for other documents like national ID corrections. The photo should be recent, in colour, and show your full face clearly.

    Many visas and job applications from Bangladesh ask for the international 35 × 45 mm size instead. Choose it from the document list if that is what your form says.

    How to take the photo

    1. Find a plain, light wall

      Stand about half a metre in front of it so your shadow falls behind you, not on the wall around your head.

    2. Face the light

      Daylight from a window in front of you works best. Avoid overhead lights that cast shadows under the eyes.

    3. Have someone take it at eye level

      The camera should be about 1.2 m (4 ft) away, level with your eyes. Leave space above your head and include your shoulders.

    4. Crop it here

      Add the photo above, check that the top of your head and your chin sit on the red lines, and download.

    Tips for this document

    • Plain white background with no shadows.
    • Keep your head straight and look at the camera.

    Common reasons photos are rejected

    • Correct
    • Head too small
    • Head too large
    • Head tilted
    • Shadow behind
    • Busy background

    Printing your photos

    Download the print sheet and print it at a photo shop, a pharmacy photo counter or at home on photo paper. Choose actual size or 100% in the print settings; “fit to page” shrinks the photos and they will be the wrong size. Cut along the small corner marks so each photo measures exactly 45 × 55 mm.
