Guide

Requirements for a Japanese passport photo

There are standards your photo has to comply with so that a Japanese passport application can be accepted. Your picture has to be original (no cutouts from bigger pictures) and of good quality. Below there are some requirements described in more detail.

Japanese passport photo size

A picture for a Japanese passport has to be 3.5 cm (width) x 4.5 cm (height) (35 mm x 45 mm).

Photo color

Japanese passport photos can be in color or black and white.

Facial expression

Your facial expression should be neutral. In other words, you cannot smile or frown. Remember also to keep your eyes open and your mouth closed.

Frontal photo

The photo must be taken from the front, with you looking directly into the camera lens. Make sure your face isn't tilted sideways or to the left or right.

Background

The background should be completely empty and you must make sure that no objects or other people are visible. A white or light grey background color is recommended.

Recent photos

People's faces change over time, attaching old photos to your passport application will make it impossible to identify you, so pictures that are more than 6 (six) months old cannot be used when applying for a Japanese passport.

Lighting

When taking passport images, make sure there is enough light in the room, where the photo will be taken, so that there are no shadows.

Photo quality

Make sure that the photo is of high quality - it cannot be blurry. It is also advisable to print on photo quality paper. Make sure not to damage the printed photo.

Glasses and hats

Glasses (but not sunglasses or tinted glasses) are allowed in Japanese passport photos, while hats and other head coverings are only allowed for religious reasons.

Outfit

There exists no formal requirements concerning your attire in a Japanese passport picture, except this one: uniforms and clothes that potentially resemble uniforms (with camouflage patterns or having insignia) are not allowed.
Avoid white tops, as they might make you blend in with the background, as well as big accessories such as earrings or headbands that could potentially cover any part of your face.
