Quick Check: Do's & Don'ts

The DFA does not accept prescription or any other eyeglasses in passport photos.

On-Site Capture vs. Printed Photos

Most DFA applicants have their photo taken on-site, not printed.

For most DFA ePassport applications inside the Philippines, your photo is captured on-site by DFA staff during your appointment — a printed photo generally isn't required or accepted.

However, Overseas Filipino Workers renewing their passport at a Philippine embassy or consulate abroad typically need two printed 35x45mm photos with a white background. This tool is built for that scenario, and for any related visa application requiring the same-style photo.

Attire & Accessories

No glasses, standard ICAO biometric rules.

Prescription glasses and all other eyewear are not accepted, in line with current ICAO biometric standards.

Head coverings are only accepted for religious reasons, with your face fully visible from chin to forehead.

Facial Expression & Posing

Neutral expression, both eyebrows and eyes visible.

The midpoints of your mouth and the bridge of your nose should align along a vertical center line. Both eyebrows must be visible, and contrived expressions like raised eyebrows or squinting are not acceptable.
