Ukrainian Passport Photo Requirements, Explained

35x45mm on white — and when you actually need to supply your own photo rather than being photographed on site.

Quick Check: Do's & Don'ts

No Glasses

Discouraged because of glare over the eyes.

No Tilted Head

Straight on, not turned or angled.

Plain White Background

Evenly lit, no shadows or objects.

Head at 70-80%

32-36mm chin to crown in a 45mm frame.

On-Site Capture vs Your Own Photo

DMSU offices photograph you; consulates abroad usually do not.

Inside Ukraine, biometric photos are captured on site at State Migration Service (DMSU) offices and CNAP centres using standardised equipment, so applicants generally do not bring a photo.

For Ukrainians applying at a diplomatic mission abroad, self-supplied photos meeting the DMSU specification are usually required. That is the situation this page is written for, and it covers a very large number of people right now.

Size & Resolution

35x45mm, or 413x531 pixels at 300 DPI.

Ukraine uses the standard 35x45mm format, which is 413x531 pixels at 300 DPI for digital submissions. The head should occupy 70-80% of the frame height — roughly 32-36mm from chin to crown.

Keep your head straight, centred and level. A head that is tilted or turned even slightly is a common reason for a photo to be refused at a consulate counter.

Background & Lighting

Plain white with no shadows.

The background must be plain white with no shadows, patterns or objects behind you. Stand about a metre from the wall so your body does not cast a shadow onto it.

Light your face evenly from the front so both eyes are clearly visible and no shadow falls across the face.

Glasses & Head Coverings

Glasses discouraged; religious coverings permitted.

Glasses are generally discouraged because glare over the lenses obscures the eyes. Removing them removes the risk entirely.

Head coverings are permitted only for religious reasons, and they must not obscure any facial features. Keep a neutral expression with both eyes clearly visible.
