Official Egyptian passport photo requirements for 2026. Size, background and rules. Create a compliant photo online.
Image Created with AI for IllustrationEgyptian passport applications use supplied photographs, with instructions that can differ between consular services. The embassy in Washington currently asks for three personal photographs in the specified format on a white background. Its checklist accompanies the application sent for passport production through the Egyptian authorities.
Use the receiving mission’s photographic instructions when arranging prints. The photo requirements below and our framing, background, facial expression and photo quality explanations help review a clear likeness. A portrait prepared for another Egyptian service should not automatically be assumed to have the size and quantity requested by this passport office.
The Washington procedure distinguishes a renewal, a lost passport and replacement of an older handwritten passport. Supporting identity documents, civil-status evidence and military-status documents may be relevant depending on the applicant. The photographic set belongs with that case-specific file, while the original passport and other documents establish the existing record.
Our Egypt page links to other Egyptian document guidance. Use the embassy and consulate directory to locate the mission serving your address, particularly if applying by post. The visa finder helps organise destination research after the passport arrangements are clear. Allow for production and return of the completed document rather than treating submission of the photographs as completion of the application.
Photo dimensions must be precise to avoid rejection. The face-to-frame ratio is equally important for proper identification.
Use a plain, distraction-free background. We replace it automatically to meet official criteria.
Proper lighting ensures your photo is clear and natural. Uneven exposure or artificial glare can lead to rejection.
Your face must be fully visible with a neutral expression for easy identification and facial recognition.
Glasses are allowed only if they do not obstruct visibility. Headwear is permitted only for valid medical or religious reasons.
Improper posture can lead to application rejection. Your face and shoulders should be correctly aligned and fully visible.
