Bangladesh's Department of Immigration & Passports (DIP) and the e-passport portal don't publish one single consolidated English-language photo spec page, so figures here are drawn from third-party photo-size references rather than a primary government citation. Bangladesh also uses three different photo sizes depending on what you're applying for: 45x55mm for a standard passport photo, a smaller 25x30mm for an e-passport digital upload, and 35x45mm for a visa. Double-check which size your specific application form asks for, and confirm against DIP's current guidance, before submitting.
Bangladesh passport photo size in every unit — standard, e-passport, and visa
Bangladesh actually uses three different photo sizes depending on what you're applying for. The standard passport photo — what this page's tool is set up for — is 45×55mm. Here's that measurement converted to the units people usually search for:
| Unit | Full photo | Head height (crown to chin) |
|---|---|---|
| Inches | 1.77 × 2.17 in | ~1.4 – 1.6 in |
| Centimeters | 4.5 × 5.5 cm | 3.9 – 4.4 cm |
| Millimeters | 45 × 55 mm | 39 – 44 mm |
| Pixels (600 DPI) | 1063 × 1299 px | ~71–80% of frame height |
If you're applying specifically for an e-passport, the digital upload is a different, smaller size: 25×30mm (2.5×3cm, 0.98×1.18in), or 591×709px at 600 DPI. And a Bangladesh visa photo is different again: 35×45mm (3.5×4.5cm, 1.38×1.77in), saved as a JPEG under 300KB. Check your specific application portal or form before assuming the 45×55mm size on this page is the one you need.
A free passport size photo maker, no studio needed
You don't need Photoshop, a photo studio, or any editing skill to make a passport size photo that meets Bangladesh's requirements. Take a clear, front-facing photo on your phone against a plain white wall, then upload it to the maker at the top of this page. Drag and resize the photo until your head lines up with the guide, and it exports a file cropped to exactly 45×55mm at 1063×1299px, ready to print or upload wherever your application asks for it.
One thing this tool won't do for you is swap the background after the fact or change what you're wearing, so it's worth getting those two right at the time you take the photo: a plain white wall behind you, and a top that doesn't blend into it. Everything else, the cropping, resizing, and head positioning, happens for free, right in your browser, with nothing ever uploaded to a server or saved anywhere.
How Bangladesh's passport photo size compares
A lot of the confusion around "passport size photo" comes from the fact that nearly every country defines it differently. Bangladesh's 45×55mm is a rectangle, closer in shape to the European and Schengen visa standard (commonly cited at 35×45mm) than to a square photo. India and the US both use a 2×2in square (51×51mm), and Malaysia's is commonly cited at 35×50mm, a different rectangle again. None of these sizes are interchangeable, so a photo that passes for one country's application generally won't pass for another, even if it looks close on screen.
If you're specifically after the Indian spec, our India passport size photo maker is set up for that 2×2in square instead. For everything else, this page's tool stays matched to Bangladesh's own 45×55mm standard.

Common rejection reasons
Background isn’t plain or uniform
Shadows, patterns, furniture, or other people in frame are among the most common reasons photos get bounced back. Use a plain wall and even, shadow-free lighting.
Head size or position is off
Too zoomed in, too zoomed out, or off-center. Each country specifies an exact head-height range and crown position, and that's exactly what the crop guide in this tool aligns to.
Glasses, glare, or head coverings
Most countries now disallow glasses entirely (or require them glare-free with no frame over the eyes), and disallow non-religious head coverings that hide the hairline or face.
Photo is filtered, retouched, or AI-enhanced
Beauty filters, background blur, skin smoothing, and AI-generated backgrounds are explicitly rejected by several passport authorities, including the UK’s HM Passport Office.
Photo is outdated
Most countries require a photo taken within the last 6 months (the UK requires within the last month). An old photo, even a good one, can be rejected on this basis alone.
Expression or eye contact issues
Closed eyes, mouth open, smiling with teeth showing, or not looking straight at the camera are all common rejection triggers. A neutral, closed-mouth expression is the safe default.

Frequently asked questions
What is the passport size photo size in Bangladesh?
For a standard passport application it is 45x55mm, which is 4.5x5.5cm or 1.77x2.17in. As a digital file, that works out to 1063x1299px at 600 DPI. That is the size this page's tool is set up for.
What is the passport size photo size in Bangladesh in pixels, cm, mm and inches?
In pixels it is 1063x1299px at 600 DPI. In centimeters, 4.5x5.5cm. In millimeters, 45x55mm. In inches, 1.77x2.17in. All four describe the same physical print, just measured differently, so pick whichever unit your form or printer asks for.
What is the passport size photo ratio for Bangladesh?
Roughly 9:11 (width to height), based on the 45x55mm standard size. It is a slightly taller rectangle than a square photo, so a photo cropped for, say, an Indian or US passport (a 1:1 square) will not fit a Bangladeshi form without recropping.
Is the e-passport photo size different from the standard passport photo?
Yes. If you're applying for an e-passport, the photo needs to be smaller: 25x30mm (2.5x3cm, 0.98x1.18in), or 591x709px at 600 DPI, rather than the 45x55mm standard size.
What is the Bangladesh visa photo size?
A Bangladesh visa photo is 35x45mm (3.5x4.5cm, 1.38x1.77in), a different size from both the standard passport photo and the e-passport photo. It needs to be a JPEG file no larger than 300KB.
How can I make a passport size photo online for free?
Upload a clear, front-facing photo to the tool above (a phone photo against a plain wall works fine), drag it until your head lines up with the guide, and download the result. It runs entirely in your browser, so there is no software to install, no watermark, and no charge.
How do I convert an existing photo to passport size?
Use the tool at the top of this page. It takes a regular photo you already have, whatever its original dimensions, and lets you crop and resize it down to Bangladesh's 45x55mm passport spec, matching the head size and position rules as you go. There is nothing to download or install first.
Can this tool change the background of my passport size photo?
No, and it is worth being upfront about that: this tool crops and resizes your photo, it does not do automated background replacement. Bangladesh requires a plain white background, so the simplest approach is standing against a white wall or sheet before you take the photo, rather than trying to swap the background afterward.
Does the photo need formal dress, or can this tool change my outfit?
This tool only crops and resizes, it can't add a shirt, tie, or change what you're wearing in the photo. Bangladesh's passport rules do not mandate formal wear specifically, but a plain, collared top tends to look cleanest against the required white background. Whatever you wear, avoid anything white or the same shade as the background, since it can blend in.
Is a Bangladesh passport size photo the same as an Indian one?
No. Bangladesh uses 45x55mm, a rectangle, while an Indian passport photo (per Passport Seva) is a 2x2in square, 51x51mm. They look similar at a glance but are not interchangeable. If you need the Indian spec instead, see our India passport photo size guide.
How does the Bangladesh passport photo size compare to Malaysia or Europe?
Malaysia's passport photo is commonly cited at 35x50mm, and the European/Schengen visa standard is 35x45mm, both smaller and a different ratio than Bangladesh's 45x55mm. None of these sizes are interchangeable, so if you're applying somewhere other than Bangladesh, check that country's own spec rather than reusing a photo cropped here.
What is the standard passport photo size, and does Bangladesh follow it?
There is no single global standard, each country sets its own. Bangladesh's standard passport photo is 45x55mm. Others differ: the US and India use a 2x2in square, the UK and Australia use 35x45mm, and Canada uses 50x70mm. "Standard" here means Bangladesh's own official size, not a size shared across countries.
Can I make a passport size photo in Photoshop instead?
You can, if you already know how to set up a custom canvas size and DPI, but it takes a fair number of manual steps to get the crop, head size, and export settings exactly right. The tool on this page does the same job, correctly sized to Bangladesh's 45x55mm spec, without needing Photoshop or any editing skill.
What background does a Bangladesh passport photo need?
Plain white, with nothing else in frame: no other objects, no other people, no patterns or shadows visible behind you.
How recent does a Bangladesh passport photo need to be?
Not older than 6 months, and it should reflect your natural look. Avoid filters or adjusting the brightness and contrast, since the photo needs to be a true likeness of you.
Does this passport size photo maker upload my photo anywhere?
No. This tool crops and resizes your photo directly in your browser, so nothing is sent to a server or saved to an account anywhere. That is also why there is no sign-up needed and no copy of your photo left sitting on someone else's system.
Which Bangladesh passport photo size should I use with this tool?
This page's maker is set up for the standard 45x55mm passport photo size. If you're applying specifically for an e-passport or a visa, those use different, smaller dimensions (25x30mm and 35x45mm respectively), so check your application portal's instructions to confirm which size it's actually asking for before you submit.
