An Egyptian e-visa or passport application asks for a photo of 472 × 709 pixels, 40 × 60 mm at 300 DPI, under 1 MB, plain white background. Photo studios charge to hit numbers that are published for free; this page starts with those numbers already set. Take a selfie or pick a photo from your gallery, drag until your head fills the guide, and download the finished JPEG.
These are the numbers Egypt’s Ministry of Interior portals commonly ask for; the exact figures could not be confirmed on an official page, so check the portal before you submit. The head should fill about 60–70% of the photo’s height, with a neutral expression, eyes open and nothing covering the face. The background cleaner turns any wall into the plain white background the rules ask for.
Everything runs inside your browser. The photo of your face never touches a server, and the page keeps working with the internet switched off.
How to use it

Take a selfie or pick a photo from your gallery.
Drag and zoom until your head fills the guide oval; clean the background if the wall is not plain.
Press create. The photo is cropped to 472 × 709 pixels and kept under 1 MB on your device, then download it.

Where it runs
In your browser; the photo is never uploaded
Not for: Judging the face itself — expression, glasses and lighting rules are checked by the authority, not by software.
Frequently asked questions
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Cropping, background cleaning and compression all run inside your browser on your own device. Your face never reaches a server, which is why the tool also works with the internet switched off.
Are the Egyptian numbers official?
The portals did not expose exact figures when checked; 4 × 6 cm and under 1 MB are consistent across many independent sources and are treated as commonly required.
What size does the egypt visa and passport photo have to be?
472 × 709 pixels, 40 × 60 mm at 300 DPI, under 1 MB, plain white background. These are the numbers Egypt’s Ministry of Interior portals commonly ask for; the exact figures could not be confirmed on an official page, so check the portal before you submit.
Why do photos get rejected?
Most rejections are technical, not about the face: file over about 1 mb; proportions not 4 × 6 cm; background not white. This page fixes the technical ones automatically.
Can I use a photo taken by a friend?
Yes. A phone photo taken from about a metre away, in daylight, against any plain wall, is the best starting point. Avoid a selfie held too close, which distorts the face.
Can I print it as well as upload it?
Yes. The JPEG carries a 300 DPI stamp so it prints at 40 × 60 mm; choose a print format in the tool to get a sheet ready for the photo shop.
What if my form asks for a different number?
Pick Custom size in the tool and type the pixels and the kilobyte limit the form shows. The same cropping guide and compressor apply.
