Your photo

Your photo stays on your device: nothing is uploaded, and no face is recognised.

What a passing photo needs

  • Stand a step in front of a plain white wall, with nothing behind you.
  • Face a window or soft light: even light on the face, no shadows on it or behind.
  • Phone at eye level, about 1.5 m away: ask someone, or hold it at arm's length.
  • Take your glasses off.
  • A neutral face, mouth closed, eyes open, looking straight at the camera.

Check your photo

The first photo loads the face finder and the background outline from this site, about 15 MB, once.

The face finder and the background outline run in this page from files served by this site (sources and licences). They find where a face is in the photo; they never recognise who it is.

This page only checks your photo: it never crops, edits or re-saves it.

Apply only on visa.nadra.gov.pk, the Pakistan Online Visa System of the Ministry of Interior. Its photograph guide says the photos must be professionally printed and 45 mm high by 35 mm wide, so this page checks the photo you have as it is and never changes it. The file can be up to 350KB and at least 350 x 467 pixels, on a white background, with no glasses on. The portal has its own photograph check too.

How recent must my Pakistan e-visa photo be?

Is my photo uploaded?
No. The photo is read and checked in your browser. The page tells our server only that a photo was checked, that it passed, or that a file was saved; never the photo, your face or any measurement. It finds where your face is in the photo; it never recognises who you are.
How is the head measured?
The page finds your chin and eyes in the photo and estimates the top of your head from your forehead, since hair hides it: the dashed line shows the estimate. If it is not at the top of your head, move it with Top of head and the checks follow.
Will my photo be accepted?
Only the issuing authority decides. A photo that passes every check here meets the published size, head and background rules as checked on 5 November 2026; you confirm the rest, such as glasses, expression and how recent the photo is.
