Singapore passport photo



1Upload your photo

To get started, take a picture of your subject against a wall in your house.

Composition checklist:
  1. Photographer: Stand about 6 feet away from the subject. Capture the subject from the shoulders and leave space above the head
  2. Shadows: ensure the subject stands one feet away from the background to avoid shadows
  3. Expression: make sure the subject has a neutral expression with no teeth showing
  4. Glasses: remove to avoid hiding the eyes
  5. Eyes: make sure no red eye in your photos
  6. Background Color: light-gray
  7. Headwear: only permitted if worn for religious beliefs and must not cover the front, the cheekbones or the chin

Note that if you are creating an official passport photo, you may wish to consult the official guidelines for Singapore (link opens a new window/tab).

After taking the picture, transfer the file from your camera to your computer and specify its location.
