Frequently asked questions

›What size is a Tanzania e-Visa photo?

It is a digital photo with no set print size. There is no official head-size number; we frame the head at 60%–75% of the photo height so the head and shoulders are clearly visible. Digital file: JPEG, up to 500 KB. pixtidy exports 413×531 pixels, inside the official limits.

›What photo do I need for a Tanzania e-Visa?

The Tanzania Immigration e-Visa guidelines ask for a colour photo no larger than 45×35 mm, as a JPG of at most 500 KB, showing your full head from the top of the hair to the bottom of the chin against a plain background. Glasses you normally wear are allowed.

›Can I wear a head covering in my Tanzania e-Visa photo?

Only for religious reasons, and your chin, forehead and both edges of your face must be visible.

›Can I take a Tanzania e-Visa 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, light-coloured wall (light grey works well). Face the camera with a neutral expression and no glasses. 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, glasses or glare, 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.
