Official Egyptian visa photo requirements for 2026. Size, background and rules. Create a compliant photo online.
Image Created with AI for IllustrationEgypt’s embassy in Washington asks visa applicants for two recent high-definition passport photographs in the specified format. The background must be white, and the pictures must be no more than six months old. These instructions apply to that consular application route, alongside the passport and evidence supporting the intended visit.
Prepare matching prints with a current likeness. The photo requirements below, plus our framing, background, facial expression and photo quality guidance, helps review the composition before submission. Keep the photographs separate from the passport copy, which records the existing travel document rather than providing the new application portrait.
The type of visit affects the supporting paperwork. A tourist application, a business visit and official travel may require different evidence even when the consulate asks for similar photographs. Identify the appropriate category and receiving service before assembling the application, including any nationality-specific processing instructions.
Use our visa finder to start entry research, and the Egypt page for related Egyptian documents. The embassy and consulate directory helps locate representation responsible for your place of residence. Keep the requested identity documents, form and travel evidence consistent with the portrait and passport details. A consular visa checklist should be read for that service rather than automatically applied to a different electronic or arrival route.
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.
