A better photo starts with a free check.

Your photo never leaves your device. All checks run in your browser.
Check results
Check your whole head fits
The blue guides on your original must mark the top of your whole head and the bottom of your chin. Adjust them if needed. We crop and resize only; backgrounds and your appearance stay unchanged.
Includes the 2x2 digital file for online renewal and a printable 4x6 sheet. 14-day refund if you're not satisfied.
Payment received. Your files are ready.
Download both files before closing this page. Print the sheet on 4×6 inch photo paper at 100% actual size with page scaling off; it contains six 2×2 inch photos. Use the correct paper setting and check dimensions with a ruler. Your printer may require borderless printing.
How it works
What we check
Our basic checks are informed by the State Department's digital photo requirements. Automated estimates cannot detect every problem.
- File type and size (JPG/PNG/HEIC/HEIF, 54 KB – 10 MB)
- Color photo
- One face, centered, facing the camera
- Full head visibility, pose and enough original pixels for the crop
- Both eyes open and visible
- Plain white or off-white background, no shadows
- Sharp, not blurry; even lighting on the face
A failed or uncertain check blocks purchase. We never replace your background, retouch your face or generate a photo. 600×600 is our output size, not the only size accepted by the online renewal system.
FAQ
Will the State Department accept this photo?
The final decision is theirs. Passing our basic checks is not a guarantee; review the official requirements and your preview.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. We temporarily save the original in this browser during checkout, then remove that stored copy when your paid files are ready. Expired records are cleared when you next open the site. Use Clear photo to remove it sooner.
What if my photo needs a retake?
We tell you exactly what to change before you pay. Checking is free.
What does the print sheet include?
Six 2×2 inch photos on one 4×6 inch sheet. Print at actual size on photo-quality paper and verify dimensions. The checker is designed for adult U.S. online renewal; it does not verify every paper-application or visa requirement.
What if payment succeeds but I lose the page?
Reopen your checkout return page in the same browser within 24 hours and select the same original file to recover the files. If recovery fails, contact cntong75@gmail.com with your receipt. Our 14-day refund policy applies.
