Frequently asked questions

›What size is a Poland Passport photo?

Print size 35×45 mm. The head, measured from chin to top of hair, must be 70%–80% of the photo height (gov.pl says the face takes up 70–80% of the photo, showing the whole head from the crown and the top of the shoulders). pixtidy exports 827×1063 pixels.

›Can I wear glasses in a Polish passport photo?

Yes. Corrective glasses are allowed if your eyes are clearly visible, the frames don't cover your eyebrows and there are no reflections in the lenses. Dark glasses are allowed only with a disability certificate attached to the application.

›How big must the face be in a Polish passport photo?

Show the whole head from the crown and the top of the shoulders. The face must take up 70–80% of the 35 × 45 mm photo.

›Can I take a Poland Passport photo at home with my phone?

Yes. Ask someone to take it from about 1–1.5 m away at eye level, in daylight, in front of a plain white or off-white wall. Face the camera with a neutral expression and remove your glasses unless this document's rules, listed on this page, allow them. Upload it here and we crop, size and check it for you.

›Why do photos get rejected?

The most common reasons are: head too small or too large, shadows on the face or background, wrong background colour, glare or tinted lenses on glasses, a tilted head, blur, and photos edited with filters or AI. Our checker tests each of these before you pay.

›Do you edit or retouch my face?

No. Officials reject photos altered with filters or AI, so we only crop, level and resize. We never change your face or replace the background.

›Is my photo uploaded to your servers?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Your photo never leaves your device and we never store it.

›What if my photo is rejected?

If an official rejects a photo our checker marked as passing, email support@pixtidy.com and we refund you in full.
