How to take the photo at home
Find a plain wall
Light grey, cream or white, with nothing hanging on it. Stand about 50 cm in front of it so you do not cast a shadow.
Face the light
Daylight from a window in front of you is ideal. Overhead lights alone create shadows under the eyes and nose.
Shoot from 2 m away
Ask someone to stand back and zoom in slightly, at your eye level. Selfies at arm's length distort the nose.
Neutral face
Mouth closed, eyes open, no smiling, no hat. Take off glasses — most authorities no longer accept them.
Turkish Visa Photo FAQ
What size is a turkish visa photo?
50 × 60 mm — 1.97 × 2.36 inches. At the recommended 300 DPI that is 591 × 709 pixels. The head must measure 36–42 mm from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head.
What background colour is required?
White, plain and free of shadows. IDShot replaces whatever is behind you with the correct colour automatically.
Can I take a visa / passport photo at home with my phone?
Yes. Stand about half a metre in front of a plain, light wall with daylight on your face, keep a neutral expression, and have someone photograph you from around two metres away at eye level. IDShot then handles the cropping, the head height and the background.
How much does it cost?
Building the photo and seeing the full preview is free. Removing the watermark and downloading the print-ready file is a one-time $4.90 — after that you can make as many photos, for any country, as you like.
