Turkey (Türkiye) passport, visa and immigration photo requirements
WinPhoto ID covers 3 Turkey (Türkiye) documents, and the 2 with a photo size on record have the same one: 50 x 60 mm. Of the 3, this site checks your photo and makes the file for 1, checks the photo you already have, without changing it, for 1 and gives the rules only for 1, where there is no photo to prepare. Find your document in the table: each name opens its own page, with the official source and the date it was read.
Your photo stays on your device: nothing is uploaded, and no face is recognised.
Official rules read between and . Each document's page gives its own date and source. WinPhoto is not affiliated with any government. Only the issuing authority decides whether it accepts a photo.
Turkey (Türkiye) photo rules, document by document
An empty cell means the document's official page states no such rule, or there is no photo to prepare. The document's own page says which.
| Document | Photo size | Background | Head size | Glasses | Its page |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Turkish passport photo | 50 x 60 mm50 mm wide x 60 mm high (not 35 x 45 mm) |
White, without pattern and without shadows. | Only if you have to wear them | Makes the file | |
| Turkey e-Visa photo | Rules only | ||||
| Turkey residence permit photo | 50 x 60 mm5 x 6 cm (50 x 60 mm), as provincial offices state; no central size is published |
White (e-İkamet document lists and goc.gov.tr); plain, no pattern and no shadow; the 2020 ICAO note prefers mid grey behind light hair. | 70% to 80% of the photo's height, chin to top of head | Only if you have to wear them | Checks your photo |
Makes the file: the page checks your photo, frames it to the rules and makes the exact file. Checks your photo: the page checks the photo you have and never changes it. Rules only: there is no photo to prepare, so the page states the rules and has no tool.
